[ElFenix]

15 minutes.

 

[BlueApple]

Takes from 15 minutes in the middle of the night or mid-day on a weekday, to up to/over an hour going either way durring rush. Total time from door-to-door is ually about 50 minutes.

BTW, it's about 5.5, 6 miles away.

 

[pinoy]

a minute-away. but always late!

 

[Aves]

60 Miles, 1 Hour.

 

[Thegonagle]

2 miles. Either 4-5 or 7-8 minutes depending on the day of the week and time of day. (I know the traffic lights all too well in my area, so I always know how to catch the wave of greens.)

 

[Twinhead]

15 mins.
up to 30 mins during rush hour.

 

[PeeluckyDuckee]

15-20 minutes during morning rush
45 minutes during 4:00 rush

My dad works 30 miles away. And he takes side streets the whole way because the 57 is the only freeway coming out of OC and it's packed! I say 30min to an 1hr on a bad day:|

I know cause I worked for him one winter.

3 miles straight shot from home to work. It takes me 8 minutes to drive if there isn't a train in the way, or 14 minutes if I have to go an extra mile to get around the train. I also take the bus a few times per week and it takes 25-30 minutes (when wife has the car).

Mine is the worst...

Usually it will takes me around 1 hour 30 minutes to get to work. I am around 32 miles away from work.
50 minutes drive to the subway station, then 40 minutes subway to work.

I can't drive directly to work, because my workplace is located in Boston, and parking is extremely expensive, so I parked in the subway parking lot instead, which is 2 dollars per day + 2 dollars of subway back and forth.

OUCH!!!!

Luckily, this is just an Internship for 4 months, after that I will be going back to school!

About 14 miles away. 18-40 minutes depending on the traffic(and how late I am ). If it gets longer than 30 minutes on average to get to/from work, I'd probably move. I consider the time spent on commuting to/from work to be the biggest waste of time in my life.

I live about four miles away from where I work, and I bike. It usually takes me ~10min to get to work. It actually takes longer by car.

9 minutes

 

[jlee]

2.5 miles..if all the lights are green, about five minutes. If traffic is heavy, maybe ten.

 

[Muadib]

It take me about 35 minutes in the morning, and anywhere between 35 to 1hr returnng late afternoon. I'm about 15 miles away from my job.

 

[DnetMHZ]

45-50 minutes

 

[Linflas]

40 minutes each way for a distance of 26 miles each way.

Edit: That is leaving my house at 5:15 AM. If I tried it at 7:30 AM it would take over an hour.

 

[vi edit]

17 miles ~25 to 30 minutes depending on traffic(read: combines/tractors/somebody towing a big ass boat ect) and stop lights.

 

[FoBoT]

20 miles each way

it takes from 20 minutes to 1 hour (when there is an accident on the freeway) each way
i normally avoid rush hour, so i figure 30 minutes average

 

[Kev]

I walk 15 minutes to the bus stop, then wait 5-10 minutes for the bus because it never comes at a regulard, predictable time. Then the bus ride is 10-15 minutes, then a 10 minute walk from the bus stop to work.

So I'd say about 40-50 minute commute.

 

[nord1899]

Used to live 5 miles from work. Took about 15 minutes on residential roads.

Now I live about 20 miles away, takes about 30 minutes mostly highways.

I moved further away because close to work was boring. New place I live at has over a dozen bars in walking distance. Old place had like two.

I have friends who live over an hour away (45+ miles) and I question them on their choice. But hey, they want to live at the beach and so they deal with the commute.
