Commute cost
A flat further from work is cheaper to buy and more expensive to live in. Compare two areas against your office and see what the road costs you in time and money.
The cost no brochure mentions
Every extra kilometre between home and office is paid twice a day, five days a week, for years. Over a 10-year stay, it can add up to more than the price difference between two areas.
How we calculate
- Distance: approximate road distance from the area to the office hub. You can type your own.
- Time: distance at a typical Pune peak-hour speed. You can type your own.
- Money: running cost per km for your mode of travel.
- Your time: if you add your salary, we value each hour on the road at your hourly pay.
Before you buy, do the trip yourself at 9 am and 6 pm on a weekday. That's the only commute test that counts.
Questions people ask
How long does it take to commute to Hinjewadi at peak hour?
It depends heavily on where you start and the time of day. Pune's peak-hour traffic often averages under 20 km an hour. Use this tool for an estimate, then drive or ride the route at 9 am on a weekday.
Is it worth paying more to live closer to work?
Often, yes. Compare the extra price of the closer flat with the commute cost you save over the years you expect to stay. This tool shows both side by side.
Will the metro change commute times?
New metro lines can cut travel time for homes and offices near stations. Check the line's actual opening status and where the stations are before counting on it.
