In the US, people who live in the NYC area are famous for measuring distance in terms of travel time, because with the heavy traffic, actual mileage is irrelevant.
I grew up there, then I moved to the central part of the country, where people talk in terms of miles. And there is plenty of open space, so they talk in terms of lots of miles.
When I looked again at maps of where I grew up, I was shocked to see how close together everything actually was -- in miles, not in minutes!

@DragonFruit I used to commute in from Southern Connecticut. It can take longer than that too. Much.
