How far do you travel to your job?

My journey is around 90 minutes. It used to be only an hour but I had to move further out.
The money I would save by not having to pay train fares is not enough to make up for the extra rent it would cost if I moved closer. It's very frustrating! My absolute dream would be to be within walking distance of a job.

It's 65 minutes if the train and bus times coincide well. More like 70 minutes if I get the train and walk. But coming home, the trains are so full, there's sometimes no room for any more people, and the longest journey home was just over four hours.

@GlassDog What's your journey?

@annamk Not actually that far on paper. Into Manchester city centre from just outside the ring road. About eight or nine miles.
