i hate commuting! i commute 50 miles every day
Commuting 50 miles every day to work would be awful.  I live where I work so I just walk there.
that's really good! I work in DC, traffic is absolutely horrible
Yes so many people are commuting to work.  I would much prefer taking a subway if possible.
i would too but the nearest metro is 15 miles away so it doesn't make sense for me to take a metro
Yes.  The DC subway does not have as many stations as the New York one.  I would try and live near one if I had to commute however.
living close to dc is very expensive and the crime rate is really high
Yes.  Crime is bad.  Crime rates at least have come down since their peak 20-30 years ago.
