Definition of "Driving time radius"

Time it takes to drive to an outlying area form a major urban area. The driving time radius can radically affect real estate values in outlying areas of major metropolitan regions. Unless there is a unique attraction, the greater the driving time radius, the less value outlying property will have in relation to urban property values.
