Commuting to work can be brutal depending on how far you are from your place of work or school.  The average work commute in Chicago is 32 minutes. That’s 32 minutes you could be doing something else than sitting in traffic trying to get to work on time.  Living near a CTA train or bus stop can make all the difference in your daily commute. If you live near a bike path in Chicago, sometimes peddling your bike can be faster than taking a car. I am going to feature three condos below that are transit friendly and would shorten your commute if you work in downtown Chicago.
