<p>I was wondering if any of you live close to campus but spend a considerable amount of time in LA. Is the commute that bad?</p>
<p>Depending on what part of LA, it is pretty bad. At least an hour to downtown, and that would be on a good day. </p>
<p>Experience: live in Orange County</p>
<p>I actually commute all the way to LA (Burbank/SFV area) every weekend on Friday from about 3pm. It takes about an hour and a half to get there, but to be fairly honest, I don’t mind the drive simply because I like being down in the LA area so the traffic doesn’t really bother me.</p>
<p>Was interning by El Segundo this quarter while taking two classes at UCI…</p>
<p>The commute is a pain. If you want to beat traffic, be up at 5AM and out the door at 5:30AM.</p>
<p>I would not suggest that during the week.</p>
<p>On the weekends it isn’t too bad.</p>
