Poll Time: Distance to work and how long it take you?

I live 13,5 KM or about 8,4 miles to work.

It takes me, on average, 1,5 hours to go to work and 2,5 hours to go home.

For now, I live 1 mile from work, it takes me about 10 mins to go there, and 20 mins to go home (I take a detour because there are certain parts of town I avoid at night)

I'm now just over 20 miles from work, and it's about 45 minutes each way (if I don't stop to get coffee).

I'm currently between jobs, but with my previous position, it was sixteen miles away and took anywhere from 20 (leave on time, no traffic problems) to 45+ minutes to get to work. (What was bad was my job when I lived in Atlanta; 50 miles away, took two hours.)

~3 miles; 5-7 minutes (I take the Tollway to go to work and go against traffic, so it's fairly quick)

18 miles from Phoenix to Mesa and it takes me anywhere from 25 minutes to 30 minutes to get there. Everyone is coming into Phoenix so I get to pass the cars making I-10 a parking lot, though it's not as bad as the BWI parkway in MD.

19 miles (17 of which are highway). 20-25 mins. with no traffic. 45-60 with traffic. Poor suburban planning in the Philadelphia region.

4.5 miles, mostly highway.
The part that isn't highway is heavy on traffic lights though so my transit time is highly based on those. Usually 20 minutes, 15 if I'm lucky.

13.6 miles, and it takes me about an hour, door to door. A little more than an hour if I walk to the train, a little less if a catch a bus.

The frustrating part is that if there is not traffic and I drive, it's 20 minutes, tops.
