Understanding the Surveys
• Sample: 1 in 6 of all households.
(15.32 million households)
• Coverage: Whole country – 3140 counties
• Point in time Survey
– Reference period: April 1, 1990
• Group quarters’ population included
• Sample: 700,000 households
• Coverage: 1203 counties
• Rolling Survey
• Conducted over 12 months
• Group quarters’ population NOT included
1990 Decennial Census 2000 ACS: Census 2000 Supplementary Survey (C2SS)
Understanding the Surveys
• Mode to work: “usual last week”
• Mode to work: allows only for ONE response
• C2SS includes only workers in hhlds (does not include workers in Group Quarters)
• 1990 CTPP tabulated travel time for all workers—households and group quarter information cannot be separated. 2000 ACS tabulated travel time only for workers in households.

walk (2.7%).
• Carpooling declined from 13.4 percent (1990) to 11.2 percent (2000) of all workers.
• Transit retained 5 percent share between 1990 and 2000.
• In numbers, workers using transit for their JTW increased 7.7 percent over the 10-year period (1990 to 2000).

Travel Time
Comparison for the US• In 2000, the average travel time to work was 24 minutes 20 seconds as
compared to 22 minutes 23 seconds in 1990. An increase of almost 2 minutes. Note: Some of this difference may be due to coding changes (of trips > 99 minutes) between 1990 and 2000. The increase may be closer to 1 minute and 24 seconds.
• 14.2% of workers now commute more than 45 minutes to work (1990, 12%)• 29% of workers now commute less than 15 minutes to work (1990, 31.4%)
Note: “Worked at home” was excluded from “commute less than 15 minutes”
Travel Time: Comparison for States
• New York continued to hold the top spot for the longest average travel time at 31 minutes 11 seconds followed by Maryland (29:10), New Jersey (28:41), the District of Columbia (28:32) and Illinois (27:02).
• West Virginia had the greatest increase in travel time at 4 minutes and 26 seconds followed by Georgia (4:14) and New Jersey (3:24).
