    "I have lived in Temecula for over 20 years. For the most part, it is a great place to raise a family. But the traffic has gotten horrendous and the city doesn’t appear to want to take action to remedy the issue. I avoid traveling in the city limits during the middle of the day. It’s terrible. "

    "There’s far less traffic than some other areas. There are prime rush hours on the highway in the morning and evening, but those can be avoided by timing your commute or taking back roads that take the same amount of time but feel faster. Overall, the commute is not bad. "
