TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - The effect of commuting time on quality of life: evidence from China JO - International journal of environmental research and public health A1 - Han, Libin A1 - Peng, Chong A1 - Xu, Zhenyu SP - e573 EP - e573 VL - 20 IS - 1 N2 - This study examines the effect of commuting time on quality of life. We find that the longer the commute time workers use, the lower satisfaction with work and life they have; the long commute also causes health damage, affecting physical health and causing inactivity. However, better public transportation infrastructure can decrease commuting time, especially the construction of subways.
