I'm a weekly commuter from northern to southern California. I turned down a relocation offer because northern California is a nicer place to live. Besides, I have a low-cost place to stay in southern California during the week. Early Monday flights on Southwest Airlines are full of people doing the very same thing. I can make it door to door in about 3 hours quite reliably.
I pay for the commute myself. When you factor in the generosity of Rapid Rewards for short-haul flyers who buy deeply discounted tickets far in advance, my commute costs me less per week than many people spend on driving to work.
