Hello:

I am looking at relocating to the Twin Cities to take a job in River Falls. Would a commute from St. Paul be reasonable? What about from Minneapolis? Mapquest computes the transit time from St Paul to be 30 minutes-does this sound reasonable, or wildly optimistic? Also does anyone have experience with the commuter bus that goes from River Falls to the Twin Cities, if so how did it work out for you? Thanks

I used to live in River Falls and would commute to downtown St. Paul twice a week. I could get there in under half an hour regularly when I left around 9:30am. When I would come home around 4 I would be fine, but getting closer to 4:30 or 5 I would hit traffic. Granted I was driving the opposite directions you would be. Lots of faculty and students at UW-River Falls commute from the Twin Cities every day, so I wouldn't call it unreasonable at all. Just be aware that the farther west you start from the more traffic you will deal with.
