Is work in garland or Greenville?
if work is in Greenville move to Rockwall and commute against the flow of traffic much easier.
If the other way around lol nahhh man you’ll immediately regret that 😂

Work is in Greenville. I just wanted to live closer to downtown to save money on Ubers when I go out on weekends 😭but I guess that’s not an option

The only positive is you’re against the flow of traffic. lol that commute will be brutal though. most of our commutes are unfortunately lol

It's doable, it's just a bit of a hike. I had a friend who commuted from Uptown to Greenville for a few years, and he tolerated it. Rockwall isn't a bad place to be, but if you want to stay in Dallas proper, you could move to Far East Dallas, somewhere between Ferguson and Buckner. You'll get there in an hour, maybe a little over, depending on when you leave.

Rockwall to Greenville is tough, but doable. From Garland you’re going to have to traverse Lake Ray Hubbard bridges everyday and that will throttle your commute.

Honestly I would start setting aside money for gas. If you want to get a better idea of how long the drive will be to and from work, I would check your maps in the morning around the time you would be heading to work and the times you would be returning home in the afternoon so you can get a better idea of how long each drive will take.

This is a brutal drive. The only saving grace would be if your employer reimbursed you for gas.

Wouldn’t they be going against the flow of traffic though? A lot of people in DFW commute an hour just to get from Collin to Dallas.

Greenville is like an hour away. You couldn’t pay me to go out there. There’s nothing there
