  This paper presents the group of domestic commuters who can only go home and meet their
  families – in the best case – once a week. It is based on a survey conducted in 2019 in which
  24 commuters together with their family members at home were interviewed about why they
  had decided on working far away from home. Looking for similar and different characteristic
  features, we have analyzed the interviews in terms of the respondents’ educational qualifications.
  Our results prove undoubtedly that the lower qualifications the respondents have, the fewer
  job options they will have; moreover, they are also in vulnerable position concerning getting
  accommodation, spending free time or finding suitable means of transport to go home.
