usualness
Quality of typicality
Usualness is the quality of being usual—ordinary, expected, unremarkable.
The word is rare because English speakers typically reach for *normalcy* or *ordinariness* instead.
When it does appear, it often emphasizes how routine something has become: The usualness of the commute made it invisible to her.
