Default Two commutes - suggestions for where to live ?

How to resolve this ??

My girlfriend and I currently live in Woking.

She works in Bracknell (30 minute drive). If I were to get a job in
Chelmsford - where is a good place to live for a reasonable commute for
both of us ?

(the middle is about central London - bit pricey).

Thanks.

How about a job closer to Woking or she moves with you to Chelmsford?

I don't think that is a matter for uk.transport.london.

Personally I'd live on the coast and be a "kept" man

East London/Docklands area? Somewhere on the Jubilee Line and DLR.

Canary Wharf/Isle of Dogs or nearby isn't as expensive as you might
think.
Really depends on the sort of property you want to live in and your
budget.

Chelmsford can be got to from Limehouse and Jubilee line to Waterloo is
12 minutes.
With a fast train to woking. You could be there in less than an hour.

Crossrail will make a difference: it'll mean that anywhere that'll
get you to Paddington or Liverpool St. will make the "long" commute
much easier by train. The "Long" commute will still be over an
hour, though.

Do you still expect to be together or in the same jobs in 2020?
