You don’t always get to sit on buses or subways. I live in an area where hour commutes are the norm (my husband took the bus to manhattan every day for 20+ years, 10 miles, 1 hour, and was thrilled to be transferred to Princeton with an hour drive). My son commutes 10 minutes to college, will come home in between classes. My oldest commuted 45+ minutes for her last semester of college ( didn’t want to sign another lease and hated it, but did a lot of couch surfing since she knew a lot of students there).
