NWR: Does anyone...

live on Long Island (either Nassau or Suffolk county) travel to New Jersey for work?
The reason I ask is because I'm trying to seek a better job opportunity and it seems like my destiny is New Jersey since I'm getting offers from there. My commute would consist of crossing the Throgs Neck Bridge ---> Cross Bronx Parkway ----> George Washington Bridge!!!
If any of you ladies is having similiar commute, can you please tell me if the traffic is really hectic and how long does it take you to cross those bridges. My final destination in New Jersey is Englewood and that's right off Route 4 which is also right outside the GW Bridge.

Any feedback is appreciated!!! Thanks so much in advance.

I would assume the closer you are to the city the easier the commute due to cutting out miles....However....My future FI lives in Ronkonkoma (exit 60 on the LIE) and he actually interviewed for a job with the NJ Devils, and the person's biggest concern was that it would not work due to the commute. He was willing to commute while he saved up for a place (his school loans are CRAZY). Had they offered him enough he would have simply relocated (although I was glad we didn't have to have that conversation). But as far as I understand it's a ride in the morning, but people do it!! Good Luck!!!
