The commute to anywhere in LA Metro area from Santa Clarita sucks. I would try to get a wfh or hybrid role. If you don’t mind taking the train, you could ride the MetroLink train to Union Station and take a shuttle or Red Line to downtown LA.

Glendale is not as bad as some areas. You can expect an average commute time of 1h15m to 1h30m in the mornings, with occasional incidents that cause the commute to be 2h+. If you want to take the train, you could take the MetroLink from Santa Clarita to Glendale station and transfer to a bus. It probably takes about 1h30m, but you don’t need to drive.

For what it’s worth if you’re not married to Santa Clarita I’d say move closer to work. Los Feliz, Glendale, Eagle Rock, Burbank, Pasadena (altho there is some residual stuff from the fires) are all very nice areas if you’re renting. If you’re buying a house that’s a different issue.
