Quote:
Most people move from office to office every 2-3 years and once they move office they drive more because they choose not to move. The society has become increasingly mobile as people who stay around major job market metro areas just buy a house in whatever their favorite suburb they can afford happens to be and then get faced with commutes. Or they buy a house next to their job only to find out 1 or 2 years later the company is relocating their job into another suburb where they've built a new campus 40 miles away. Or they simply get unhappy with their job or get laid off and get another job in the same metro area and are forced to face longer commute. These situations I described is what I've observed in Los Angeles, Bay Area and Northern Virginia.

This is the situation in metro Denver, too. Fortunately, DH has been in the same office building 6 miles from our home for 7 yrs now. The company, OTOH, has changed hands.
