S.F. has among nation's highest public transit use among commuters

San Francisco is among the cities with the highest use of public 
transit, according to a U.S. Census Bureau report released Tuesday. 
San Francisco tied with Boston, where about 31 percent of workers 
commute on public transportation.

The only U.S. cities with higher public transit use were New York, 
with 55 percent, and Washington, D.C., with 37 percent. One-third of 
the nation's 6.4 million people who travel to work on public 
transportation use systems in New York, according to the report.

Of the approximately 6.4 million people nationwide who usually travel 
to work using public transportation, nearly one-third live in New 
York City, according to a new analysis of American Community Survey 
data released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Chicago and Philadelphia each have 27 percent public transit usage 
among commuters. Newark, N.J. had 26 percent and Baltimore had 25 
percent.

Only one Los Angeles worker in eight uses public transportation, and 
in Houston, only 6 percent of workers use public transportation.

Overall, 5 percent of the nation's 128.6 million workers use public 
transportation to get to work.

Other survey highlights:

* Nationwide, 77 percent of workers drove alone to work, 10 percent 
carpooled and 2 percent walked.
* Bus transportation accounted for 55 percent of public 
transportation use nationally; subway or elevated rail use ranked 
second at 29 percent.
