I think the ability to work from home though has really made life easier for more parents to live without relyling on a car for everything, compared to pre-covid.

In our case, we have a kid but thanks to working from home, we easily live with just one car.

I use it in the morning to do daycare dropoff. My wife uses it in the evening to pick him up.

She works from home most days.

I work from a coworking space a 20 min walk from home.

Whenever I commute downtown once or twice a week, I take the seabus.

My total commute time is almost double than if I commuted by car (almost 60 mins vs 30 mins). But commuting by transit is way less stressful than sitting in traffic. I really enjoy it tbh. I can zone out with a podcast.

I love the fact we don't need a second car and I plan on keeping it that way for as long as possible.
