The Birmingham Business Journal reported that the Business Journal "On Numbers" said that Helena Alabama (for it size) has the worst (longest) commute. Also to rank poorly in the study was Alabaster, Pleasant Grove, Center Point, Moody, Pelham, Trussville, Hueytown and Fairfield all ranked in the bottom 10 in Alabama".
The original article said their numbers were based on the "2009 American Community Survey, which was conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau". In case you are wondering which is the best city ...Altus Okla. I goggled Altus to find out why it has the shortest commute. "Altus is home to Altus Air Force Base and world class companies including Bar-S Foods Co., and Altus Athletic Manufacturing". Which means all their jobs are within 15 minutes of their homes (Unless you live on base then it is closer).
So it looks like most of us drive a decent distance to work. It would be nice to work in Helena instead of driving to Jefferson County. You could have lunch with your children or just run home to watch tv.
