Looking to buy house in Livermore. Spouse can work from anywhere, currently I am wfh, eventually move to Hybrid. For ppl who is commuting from Livermore to south bay, how is your experience? How is your quality of live? We have 2yr old. Appreciate your responses.
Good place for Indians for sure
Get the Tesla if you don't have one already while it's on sale, you will need the full self driving to make your life much easier
Do the opposite of this
My friend from Livermore has a commute of 1.5-2 hours to Santa Clara during rush hour. It’s only an hour without traffic.
I commute from Livermore to Fremont. 27-30 min. Going to San Jose downtown without traffic is be about 40 min. Without traffic. With traffic, 40 min in the morning and 50min return. The two way lane is almost finished, so should cut another 10-15 min each way. People usually exaggerate it. Just buy a house.
It’s from Fremont the traffic picks up because everyone merges there. Easily 1+ hour during the rush hours. Many are doing it though
How are schools in that area
Pretty good. Livermore is open school district
It also depends on where in Livermore. I stay close to 84 so it's about 35 min to Santa Clara off peak and 1-1.15 hr during peak. If you are looking near Springtown etc then those extra 15 mins feels a lot.
Where does your wife work that she can be remote?
