If your commute is about an hour each way you're probably spending roughly that much.

    Not having a car wouldn't be an option then.

    That's completely dependent on where you live. The closest train station to me is an hour and fifteen minutes walk from me.

    That's about the same for me, but it's about a 15 min bike ride (approx 3-4 miles away). The problem is, it would take me ~2 hours to do my 25 mile commute by transit, vs 35 min by car. In fact, I could probably bike it faster than transit.
