This is great news. I too used to commute an hour one way and an hour back. I'm now 5 minutes from work :-), with no traffic...

I think the worst I have ever had to deal with was a 77 mile one way commute with really bad rush hour traffic. The mornings were OK because I started at 6 am but the drive home once took me 5 hours on a friday.Comment

When we lived in Houston my wife's commute was less than 20 miles and took her two and a half hours each way.
I was a half mile from work.

My wife and I seemed to switch commutes. When living in Greenbelt she worked at the University of Maryland and was 4 miles away, while I was more than 20. Now living in Bowie, she's an hour away up in Columbia and I'm 10 minutes away from my office. And this is in the DC region, home of the worst traffic in the U.S. (when LA doesn't hold the title).

Wait where is NY/NJ in commute times. I know we got to be up there in traffic jams.Originally posted by Rand{CLR} View PostMy wife and I seemed to switch commutes.

You're 5th. The difference is your transit system is better than most. DC has a great Metro system too but it's not as extensive and doesn't serve all of the largest population concentrations.Originally posted by goldenfooler View Post
Chicago, LA, and Houston are higher than NYC region in the latest study--Texas Transportation Institute 2011 Urban Mobility Report.

Don't tell people up here the transit is good.. they might bite your head off.Originally posted by Rand{CLR} View Post
It has taken about 15-20 years to get a new subway line started. It will be done in 8 years.
Of course I hate NYC.Comment

Congrats Mapes!!! I feel your pain Rand, I also live in the DC / Baltimore area. Traffic here is a nightmare and people haven't got the slightest idea what turn signals are used for...Comment
