Richard Dunks has created a serial of transit maps visualizing how New Yorkers commute to work. The iii maps demo how workers inwards each New York City census tract move to function past times subway, jitney together with / or car.

The Subway Ridership map reveals the break of workers, aged xvi together with over, who commute to function past times tube inwards each census tract. As y'all would await census tracts close tube stations inwards full general demo the highest pct of workers travelling to function past times subway. However the map too reveals that workers in Pelham Bay Park and East New York too bring a high pct of tube commuters, despite having no tube station nearby.

The Bus Transit Shed map shows the break of commuters who move to function past times bus. Again, every bit y'all powerfulness expect, the map reveals that commuters who don't alive close a tube station appear to a greater extent than probable to commute to function past times bus. However the pct of workers inwards census tracts non close tube stations together with travelling to function past times jitney doesn't appear to survive uniform, then presumably at that spot is a story to survive told inwards those tracts amongst the highest levels of jitney commuting usage.

The NYC Vehicle Commuters map visualizes the break of commuters inwards each census tract who move to function past times car. The map is almost a mirror icon of the Subway Ridership map, suggesting that the tube is real successful inwards persuading people to larn out their cars at home.

You tin hand notice read to a greater extent than almost the production of the maps, the information used together with to a greater extent than analysis on the commuting trends revealed inwards the maps on this Datapolitan article.
