This report contains information from a special study on commuting in the United States. The report is based on the Travel-to-Work Supplement to the Census Bureau's Annual Housing Survey, initiated in 1975, under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Detailed tables give data on place of residence by place of work by means of transportation by travel distance, and place of residence by place of work by means of transportation by travel time.

Text tables furnish data on place of residence by place of work; net commuter movement; means of transportation; commuter flows by means of transportation; means of transportation last year by percent using current means; and change in commuter use of public transportation.

Further statistics are presented on means of transportation by distance and travel time to work; means of transportation by average time and distance.

A Note on Language

Census statistics date back to 1790 and reflect the growth and change of the United States. Past census reports contain some terms that today’s readers may consider obsolete and inappropriate. As part of our goal to be open and transparent with the public, we are improving access to all Census Bureau original publications and statistics, which serve as a guide to the nation's history.
