I’m assuming that most of you are from the US so probably using cars, but lemme know if you use trains, subways, buses, etc.

Me? Back when I was doing an internship I walked to a nearby station for 10 minutes then transited to another train line, which could be an instant or 20 minutes wait. After that I walked for 10 minutes to my work place. So it was probably about 40 minutes of commute. Of course, I live in tropical country so I’m drenched in sweat as I arrive in the office.

Fortunately every year my city’s public transportation seems to get better and as a result I barely needed to use cars.

    In the US and currently fully WFH, but if I need to go into the office for some reason, it’s a 10-15 minute walk.

    Walkability is pretty important to me, so I moved to a city with decent public transportation and don’t currently own a car. I use ride sharing apps or traditional car rentals on the rare occasion that I need a car, and even though they feel expensive, my annual car expenses are still significantly less than what I’d pay for parking alone if I owned a car.

      How hard is it to find housing there, and how expensive is it? I heard that housing in US isn’t in good condition
