NOTES: Only trips in which the
transportation mode and age could be identified are included.
Column totals may not add to 100 percent due to rounding.
Underlined
estimates are based on a small sample size (<30) or a coefficient of
variation greater than 30% and are not reliable.
On this table, differences are measured in
columns instead of rows. Among 18-24 year olds and 55-64 year olds, the
difference between the percentage using bus and "other" is not
statistically different, nor is the difference between the percentage using
train and "other". The
difference between bus and train is statistically significant.
Among those 65+, the difference between
the percentage using air and bus is not statistically different, nor is the
difference between the percentage using train and "other".
