How It Works
The Commute Cost Calculator helps you make informed housing decisions by revealing the hidden costs of commuting that most people overlook. A “cheaper” apartment far from work often becomes the expensive choice once you factor in vehicle depreciation, time value, insurance, and health impacts.
What This Skill Analyzes
- Direct Vehicle Costs - Using IRS standard mileage rates that account for fuel, depreciation, maintenance, insurance, and financing
- Time Value - Multiple methods to calculate what your commute time is actually worth
- Hidden Expenses - Parking, tolls, insurance differentials, and opportunity costs
- Quality of Life - Research-backed thresholds for when commutes become harmful
- Break-Even Analysis - The exact point where rent savings disappear
The Math Most People Miss
The IRS calculates true vehicle operating costs at $0.67/mile (2024-2025). This means a 60-mile daily round-trip costs $40/day or $10,000+ annually—not the $15-20 most people estimate when only counting gas.
Add time value (your commute hours × your hourly wage) and the “cheap apartment” often costs more than the “expensive” one.
