I'm planning to move to SD in the next month. I'm looking at apartments, and unfortunately will not have much of a chance to scope them out in person prior to signing. I've been testing commute times in Google Maps beginning at 8:30am from apartments to work, mostly including going northbound along I-5 from near downtown SD to the outskirts. The times its estimating seem ridiculously fast, 16-26 minutes to go 15-20 miles during rush hour. Is this correct? Is it because most commuters are going the opposite direction?

Interesting. I think I might end up staying at a long term stay hotel to try and scope it out myself. It’s very hard for me to visualize especially considering how bad traffic is where I currently live. I’m not moving a lot of possessions so I was brought to the realization this was possible.
