    People need to live where they work. How is your commute and what are costs of car ownership?

      I live 15 miles out which isn’t a lot but with traffic it’s 30-40 minutes on good days and upwards of an hour on bad.

      I really don’t have it all that bad compared to other people in LA/orange county but I wish I could live in the apartments down the street and just walk/bike here instead of driving.

        Under 1 hour aint too bad… for US car commute.

        But is cost being out worth the cost of no car and closer?

          Yea in comparison it isn’t all that bad, but 15 miles shouldnt take anyone more than 20 minutes. I would love to just take public transit instead but it doesn’t work for this commute unfortunately.
