The worker-weighted access here represents the average number of jobs a person can reach from a specific census area within a given travel time threshold. The travel time threshold are in integer seconds, at intervals from 300 (5 min) to 3600 (1 hour). For transit accessibility, the match between schedule and departure time greatly influences what is reachable. We use available published transit schedules for a given travel day and average across each minute from 7am to 9am to give an average access, removing some of the variation due to mismatch of departure. Transit access travel times include walking to and from stops, as well as waiting. Where no applicable transit service is available, the accessibility metric represents jobs available by walking. Census levels included in this dataset are: Block, Block Group, Census Tract, County, and State. The file-naming system for the data files is [state]_[statecode]_[mode]_[census_level]_[year].csv: These files contain the census level data by mode, year. **Important Note: Due to its large size, the 'Block' level data file should not be opened outside of a person's coding platform. Attempting to open this file in Excel or a similar spreadsheet program would cut off a significant amount of data points.** Data fields included in the data are: 1. mode: the type of travel modes, one of auto, bike, or transit; 2. year: National Accessibility Evaluation data year, the year for which this dataset is relevant; 3. parent_area: the ID of the containing geography within which the data averages are calculated; 4. summary_level: the level of geography at which averages are calculated - one of state, county, census tract, block group, or block; 5. geoid: the ID of the particular census geography for which the data averages are calculated; 6. threshold: the travel time threshold in seconds, ranging from 300 to 3600 seconds; 7. weighted_average: the average number of jobs a person can reach from a given census area within the travel time threshold for a specific modeThese data were created as part of a study that examined the accessibility to jobs by transit across the United States. It is the most detailed evaluation to date of access to jobs by transit, and it allows for a direct comparison of the transit accessibility performance of America's metropolitan areas. These data are part of a longitudinal study.
