I live a comfortable 20 miles from work. I travel outside the rush hour times so my travel is under a half hour each way.

I couldn't afford a place closer that had 1/4 the amenities, room, quality of live, nor lifestyle that is closer. I live in a little farming community outside the reach of mass transit and crime is unheard of, the air smells fresh and clean, and the night is filled with the sounds of frogs not traffic.
