This is my third year and third base. If I would have moved initially like I thought I was going to, I would have been commuting after 6 months anyways. I've done a 4 hour commute and a 1.5 hour commute. While commuting can be stressful, I'd much rather be able to come home and spend my days off in the mountains than stuck in some major city hating life and everyone else around me. I guess it really depends on if you have roots and enjoy your lifestyle where you're at currently. If you feel your life is easily transportable to a new city, you're probably better off moving to not deal with a commute. Just remember regionals shuffle flying constantly, so sooner or later your base may close.
