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 minutes, at intervals from 5 min to 60 min (1 hour). 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 mode.These data were created as part of a study that examined the accessibility to jobs by auto in the 50 largest (by population) metropolitan areas in the United States. The data include access at realistic observed driving speeds by time of day and road segment. The underlying speed data inputs restrict data sharing to participating sponsor states. The data available describe access to jobs by auto in the states/districts of California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia; and the metropolitan areas within these states. These data are part of a longitudinal study.
