My car is parked in the garage and hubby's car gets parked in the driveway, about 25' from Jeep door opening to house door.
I don't work so my commute is nil.
Hubby's commute is all of a mile, maybe a little bit more, but certainly under 1.5 miles. Two country roads, one stop sign.

His previous commute when we lived in WA state was 55mi one way along the Columbia Gorge. Nice to view the first few times, same-ol-same-ol every trip afterwards. The ice storms were the worst...icicles up to 16" long SIDEWAYS off the phone poles and fence posts. Nearest gas station was 40mi from his work. Only two roads to drive there, Columbia Gorge or the Bickelton Hwy. Whole lotta nuthin'.
When we moved across the country, he said NO MORE COMMUTE. And that is how we house shopped; "What's in THIS specific area?"
