Commuting to the city from Suffolk
Hats off to all of you who do it! DH & I were in the city today and when I commuted to the city, I did it from western Nassau and never realized how lucky I was to have such a short train ride. Kudos to you guys who do this everyday!

I call it the sticks too! All the way back from the city, esp since we were on the train for an hour past what had been my stop, I kept saying to DH, "Be glad I stopped commuting before we were married or you would hear it EVERY night!"

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
My DH use to live in Western Nassau & commutes to the city & when he moved out here to Huntington he added an hour to his commute but he doesn't mind it because he likes the train. I on the other hand work 3 minutes from home and could never commute into the city every day.

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
I did it for 7yrs and now just recently moved to queens
Commuting from Suffolk was all I knew - I didn't know how much better it can be from Queens - LOL
Now the tricky part is one day going back to Suffolk to buy a house and doing the commute all over again

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
We used to commute from Mineola and that was a dream compared to Bethpage. I can't imagine what it would be like from Suffolk.

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
I went for interviews as well from Ronkonkoma...No Way! I was actually thankful I didn't get the job!
Im closer to the Huntington/Northport lines now, but, still..I liked being in my own car!
I agree, hats off to all of you who do this every single day!
My FIL used to commute from here to WTC! and another friend from here to WFC!...Again..after hearing their commuting stories..Hats off!

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
I cannot believe you all commute from Suffolk. I took the train from Jamaica to Glen Cove and it took 1.5 hours.

Re: Commuting to the city from Suffolk
I really think it depends on the line. When we lived on the South Shore and my husband took the train from 5 towns, that was just about the same as from Huntington. I think the key is to be near a 'hub". Alot of friends from Commack, Smithtown, Northport and Kings PArk, go out of Huntington,because its just about an hour into Penn.
