Five minutes is too short. Ten to fifteen is ideal. That usually means you're living and working in different neighborhoods.

Until Winter in the Northeast hits, and commute times multiply by 4x. Five is perfect yo.

Seasons are everything, I couldn't do the 70 degrees and sunny west coast climate every day of my life.
