There’s literally no option for public transit, because I live near one rail system, and my work is near an entirely separate rail system. The two aren’t connected at all, so there’s no way for me to transition in between the two. Making a transfer between the two literally takes longer than simply walking to work, because the two closest stations are farther apart than where I live compared to my job.
What surprises me the most in yours and the OP is how much longer the walking and biking are comparatively. I picked a random spot 11min drive away from my house for comparison:
And I’m in the “countryside” of the Netherlands, no trains, trams or anything like this here and bus station is already like 10/15min walk.
I expect the public transit craziness but why is walking/biking that much more?
This is my daily commute:
