Which Cities In Delaware Have The Worst Commutes?

No one actually loves traffic.

Sometimes its a chance to listen to your favorite music and decompress…but overall traffic is the WORST.

Traffic affects your commute, and timing your commute in the morning takes skill and precision.

You need to time your Wawa stop, your shower, and what time is the latest you can leave!

Stacker recently compiled a list of the Delaware cities with the worst commutes.

According to Stacker “Pre-pandemic, the average commute in the U.S. was a hair over 27 minutes one way, according to Census Bureau data. It was a record high. Cumulatively, 27 minutes each way translates to 54 minutes a day, or four-and-a-half hours per week. That’s 18 hours a month and 216 hours a year spent commuting.”
