  • Christopher S.
    "VA to MD is a 20-30 minute venture but VA to DC or DC / MD to VA is probably an hour to two hour traffic filled nightmare. Vice versa going from VA to MD in the afternoon where the traffic pattern reverses. So if you work in MD and live in VA you can commute no issue. Working in DC and living elsewhere would be problematic. as would be working in MD and commuting anywhere."
