It's a great spot at a great price for that much space. You sound mature enough that you'll appreciate the combination. Having traveled a LOT I can tell you that commute time is much less of a necessity for living here. Commutes of 90 minutes or more by public transportation is pretty much a norm here. Nobody would bat an eyelash if told "I wake up at 5:30 to get to my job by 9." I live nearby and you have 13 subway lines within a reasonable walk for someone your age. I can leave my place and be through security at JFK in less than an hour by taking the LIRR from Atlantic Terminal.

Thanks for the reply! Given that I can currently get to any train i need in 10 minutes max, I was hoping that 12-14 minutes wouldn't be unreasonable lol. Glad to hear that you don't think it is
