How To Use This Site

There are more than 100 charts, tables, and graphs available on the Data Hub. The data is structured around three types of geographies: National, State, and City and eight subject areas. Each chart provides the opportunity to download its underlying data, identifies its data source, and, if possible, allows sorting and searching.

We envision this site as a one-stop shop for publicly available data on bicycling and walking that makes it easy for the public to interact with and use data to make the case for improvements to biking and walking. Our reports section provides context for the data and drill down into issues where data can be improved. We hope you enjoy the site and find it helpful to your efforts to create healthier and safer places to bike and walk.
