In the San Francisco Bay Area, it's not uncommon for people that work here but can't afford to live here to have commutes of over an hour with good traffic (2+ hours with heavy traffic) each way. That's the case in a few major metro areas in countries like the USA and Australia.

Yeah Bay Area and LA traffic is next level. My condolences to those souls who make that drive every day

My commute in the Bay Area is 15-20 mins without traffic, but it can be 50 minutes if there's some incident on the 101 or if I accidentally try to commute during the highest peak period.

I'd love to take a train to work, and I used to take Caltrain every day, but it's just not feasible where I live now.

I think LA is even worse than the Bay.
