A commute from home to office is a big challenge in every big city because of growing population. The more the job opportunities, the more significant is the traffic problem. How about living at a place at a walkable distance from office? Well, this is a luxury if your office is within the city proximity. This is because housing near such vicinity would be way too expensive than properties in the developing areas as the constructions would be old and the areas are already developed ones. However, if you can afford this luxury then nothing like it.

Let us understand the advantages of living close to the workplace. 

You ultimately make savings in the long run

Your daily commute to office cost you quite a good amount of money annually, especially in a suburban city. Be it public transport (metro, bus or cab) everything comes with a price. Besides, you spend a good amount of time in a traffic jam every day in the pollution. If the public transport system in your city is not good enough, then most of us ultimately opt to buy a car to avoid pollution. Now, here comes parking space issue at home as you will be charged additional expenses for space. Also, all offices may not have a parking lot. So, you may have to rush to the office early to seek roadside parking. 

Prime location – always in demand

Properties within the city proximity are still in demand. So, if you ever plan to sell the property, you will always get a good return on investment. Even renting the house will fetch you good returns as compared to suburb properties. 

Freedom to work until late in the office

You always try to avoid traffic and hence either you hurry to rush home or come in late to office. So, living at a walkable distance from workplace saves you at least 3 hours on an average. Now, that you have moved next to the workplace, you can stay in office for an additional hour; this will be noticed by your seniors, which could be a booster for your career growth. 

Better infrastructure

Opting home in the city centre means living to the proximity of developed infrastructure in terms of social as well we civic sense. For example, the metro network being constructed in your area means taking g a detour of office route or other places. Even a mall construction creates trouble. Home within turn city means you already have everything and there is the least chance of further development.

So, you will have a hassle-free life by spending less time on the road.
