Question: is 45 minute commute too long?
Answer: With traffic, it could be 1-hour-and-15 minutes. ... Commutes longer than 45 minutes are up 12 percent in that time span, and 90-minute one-way commutes are 64 percent more common than in 1990. The longer your commute, the less time you have for family, friends, exercise and nutrition—and it's awful for your mental state.
