Do you guys commute long distance to work? (1-2hrs)

Is it worth the money buying home far away from work place?

The price of homes in Canada has risen dramatically over several years that many people buy homes in small towns. They commute to work in big cities. Most commuters have to drive 1-1.5hrs to work everyday. It would be exhausting to commute long distance to work. I wouldn't be able to do it for many years. The chances of accidents increase every year.
