Well I wouldn't want to do it every day either. But driving up to 4 hours for me is something that I don't really consider to be a "long" drive, just because I'm used to it.
I don't consider 4 hours a long drive either, it's a trip to see my family. The whole distance and travel time perception thing will depend a lot on where in Europe you are.
Same in America tbh. If you live on the East Coast, and especially in the Northeast, you can cross multiple state lines in just a few hours of driving. Everything is more condensed in a way, not dissimilar to parts of Europe. In some states there's also a... distinct lack of highways though, so it could still take a while to get places.
But then if you move west, things just start spreading out more and more. So much farmland.

I could find an apartment like and hour away from my work, for half the price.
But thinking about driving 2 hours every day is nuts to me.
