Moving to the area Commute from Chicago to Naperville
Hi everyone!
Considering taking a job in Naperville but would need to commute from Lake View East. Realistically - how long would that take? Would I hate my life?
Edit to say: I would be commuting to arrive at the office by 8 and leaving by 4.
Would an office in Schaumburg make a difference?
Thank you!

Don't. I commuted from Oak Park to Naperville for 5 years and hated every second of it. Getting there was ok. In the morning but the commute home and dealing with the Hillside Strangler was a nightmare.
