  • Western United States. I used to try to commute via public transport. To get to where I needed to go, I needed to get on a bus, a train, and another bus. My walk to the bus was about 15 minutes from my apartment. The bus came about every 30 minutes, but was often not on time. The bus to the train was about 10 minutes. The train only ran every 30 minutes, so sometimes I’d get dropped by the bus and have to wait 25 minutes to continue my journey. The train took about 25 minutes to my stop. The second bus ran every 15-20 minutes, took about 8 minutes to get to my final destination.

    All together, my commute could be from 50min - 1h 30. In my experience it was usually closer to 1h 30.

    Driving? 35min, 45 with traffic.

    United States has got to start really investing in public transportation.
