It's very uncommon in the US. It less uncommon in Silicon Valley...which is disproportionately represented on HN.

To be fair it's also a problem in some cities outside SV though (Austin, Atlanta, Seattle) but the overwhelming majority of Americans don't face this issue. Even Americans working in tech.

Again, the overwhelming majority of Americans don't face this issue to the degree being discussed here (1+ hour commutes)
