Notes About the Data
Average Commute Time data is drawn from responses to the "long form" version of the 2000 and 1990 Censuses. The data are arithmetic means for workers who do not work at home. Long form information is based on responses from a sample of households that were asked additional questions about their commuting, education, occupation, income and housing. The data are subject to sampling and non-sampling error. The types and directions of the errors, however, should be similar for both the 1990 and the 2000 data.
