In over 25 years, there was only one person who turned down a job because he didn't want to commute from Halifax to Burnside (which is against the major flow of traffic, but still busy). There were probably more factors at play, but he said that was the tipping point as his current job was in Halifax so his commute was easy.

During my career my first job was in Burnside when I was living in Halifax. The commute then was easy because it was indeed against the bulk of the rush-hour traffic. However over the last 10-15 years the equation has changed and while perhaps the two flows are not equal, traffic at rush hour is heavy in either direction.
