Commuting times in Jersey are . . . complicated. It's the most densely populated state, and there is a huge volume of commuter traffic, particularly from the suburbs to the big cities (or closer to the cities). And "North Jersey" and "Central Jersey" are rather vague. Commuting from Warren County to Mercer County is a whole lot different than commuting from Essex to Middlesex, particularly during rush hour.

So, if you really want an accurate assessment of what your commuting times would be like, you probably need to provide more-specific data.

ITT: People who misread OPSs question and then explained to them why the question they didn't ask is hard to answer.

They asked what your commute is, not what theirs will be.

Right, but I think we can all see that OP is trying to determine how long theirs will be. If everyone says 8 minutes, how is the information useful?

Can't speak for OP, but I don't see it that way.

If you think about a commute as a "cost" its more like "What's the typical amount people spend on commuting in NJ?".

And communing times will change over time, and not for the better.
