About this ranking

Mean one-way travel time to work in minutes for workers aged 16 and over who did not work from home.

ACS five-year estimates: the period labels the final year of the five-year survey window, not a single calendar year. Calculated from aggregate minutes in B08135 and workers in B08303, with both inputs stored. Missing or suppressed county inputs are left out. Not mixed with ACS one-year estimates.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the counties are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
