It may be true for US but in Europe lots of cities have functional public transport and are dense, so you aren't limited in any way. Lots of people use trains here to get to the city, where I currently live, to work. So their commute is about 50 km but with train it is 30 min.
Does that not limit you to only working at places that happen to be near a train station?
Well you could take the bus / tram / subway too.
Yes public transport is network not single lanes, when done right you get of the train and have already bus waiting for you. It is not easy to implement these connections but not impossible.
In cities with functional transit networks there are so many train stations that literally everything in the city is near a train station.
