Hi all,

Does anyone recommend doing the commute from Michiana Shores to South Bend each day, particularly during the winter months? There is a possibility I will have employment in SB but plan to live in the Michiana Shores area.

If this is not a good idea, can anyone recommend similar areas which are relatively safe and have good schooling which are closer to SB...

Thanks,

Rostau

Michiana Shores is in Indiana, as is South Bend. This is the Michigan forum. You should try your question on the Indiana forum.

To answer your question, it's about 30 minutes on the 80/90 toll road, or about 40 minutes on U.S. 20. Not a bad drive, and the lake effect snow is rarely bad south of the border. It's an OK commute. If you want somewhere closer to South Bend, try Niles, MI, which is 10 minutes away and a very nice town with great schools (your choice of Niles Community, Brandywine, Buchanan, and Edwardsburg.) I couldn't tell you anything about the Indiana side, I'm from Michigan and stay on the north side of the border as much as possible.
