For buyers considering The Rocks as a live-work balance play, the commute data should be read alongside the remote work context. A suburb with a 40-minute public transport commute may be entirely acceptable if you are in the office two or three days per week. Stickybeak shows the objective journey time; you decide how it fits your working pattern.
