Birthing Center or Hospital

Riley
I live in a small town and have a limited selection of doctors and OB/GYN's.. they're about 45min to an hour away. So it's quite a drive.. I really want to do a birthing center, really bad! I've had great experiences with midwives. But it's an hour and a half away. Is that too far? Do I just need to deal with what I've got that's closer to me? Or is this doable?? What's your insights?
