Not all commutes are created equal.

10 minutes in a car is far less pleasant (to me) than a 25 minute walk.

Also 25 minute commute means 50 minutes out of the day, every workday. That adds up.

Not to mention getting ready for the commute/getting settled back home which is easily at least half an hour every workday.

Yes, that sums up to over 4 hours per week, i.e. half a working day.
