How many minutes is 25 miles driving?

I just got a new job, and I’m wondering if it’s too far away for me to commute comfortably. How long will it take me to drive 25 miles in minutes?

Your commute is likely to be manageable, but how many minutes it will take to drive the 25 miles back and forth to work will depend on the kind of roads that separate you from your job.
If you get to hop on the highway the whole time, it should take no time—but if you’ll be relegated to side roads only, you may need to leave for work earlier or start looking for a place that’s a bit closer to the office.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of how your speed affects the amount of time it’ll take you to drive 25 miles:

Before you grab your keys, there are a few more factors to consider:
  • Are there a lot of other drivers on the road at this time of day?
  • Are you taking a route that’s known for routine
    traffic jams
    ?
  • Are you planning to make stops for gas, coffee, or breakfast?
All of the questions above are worth asking when you’re determining your travel time—especially for your work commute—as they can help you estimate exactly how much time you’ll need to give yourself each morning to get there.
Pro tip: It’s also a good idea to keep an eye on weather and traffic reports, which can help you gauge a more accurate estimate in your day-to-day life.
