How far are you willing to go for work?
New and expanded markets for Real Estate brokers

Although its desirable to live near where one has a job, the latest information released shows that this is not the case. According to published reports, the number of workers with commutes that are longer than 60 minutes has grown by over 50% in the last decade.

As a matter of fact, to accommodate this, New York's Metro-North Railroad has added earlier trains to each of its lines that leave as early as 4:12 a.m. to arrive at Grand Central Station at just before 6 a.m. Although this early hour is definitely a discomfort to many commuters, a definite upside is that there are more people utilizing mass transit and this can only be good for the environment as there are fewer cars on the road.

However, the real issue posed is really to determine how far people are willing to travel in order to get to their jobs. Yes, many have been traveling over two-hours each way daily to work in NYC for many years. Yet, what has traditionally been considered the Metropolitan New York area has definitely grown past the well-known suburban areas. This also creates a whole new market for real estate brokers in which to expand their reach.
