I am considering moving to Houston to work at MD Anderson. How long would the drive be at about 6am and 8pm from Richmond or Katy? Do people like living at Cinco Ranch?

From Richmond (like the Pecan Grove area) you'd go in on 59, I'd guess that would be vastly different at 6am than 8am. 59 mainlanes get pretty hairy around 8AM for sure.

From Cinco Ranch on I-10, it would be pretty easy, and about a 30-40 minute commute door to door. I take it all the time and I am at the Beltway and I-10 and it takes me about 20 minutes at 9AM, as long as there are no accidents!

With either route, I recommend you take the Park-n-Ride. No paying for parking, no sitting in traffic (HOV lane instead!). The Park-n-Ride for 59 would be the 297 and the Park-n-Ride for I-10 would be the 298. Check METRO - Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County, Houston, Texas for more info.

Good luck!

yikes - those are both long, and arduous drives. Is living inside the loop an option for you? It's worth it!

I wouldnt want to drive that twice a day. Way too far for a daily commute esp if the gas goes up agaoin. Consider inside the loop, Pearland or Sienna plantation

Did you move to Richmond? Are you working at MD Anderson. I live in Pecan Grove and the commute is not bad. I take 90 all the way to the Medical Center. About 30 minutes.
