    Not everyone has a choice sadly - work tends to be in the cities, and prices for a family home in a city are beyond most couples.

    So, you’re forced to commute by car.

      Not everyone, certainly, but some people do have a choice, and willingly choose the commute.

      I knew a guy in Alaska who drove three hours one way to work every morning because he didn’t like having neighbors. I’m not sure why he cared about his home situation so much when he was only there to sleep, but here we are.
