## How it was measured

The Census Bureau asks workers how they usually get to work (table B08301), and the question covers the main way they get there in the survey week. We split each block group by the share of its land in each neighborhood.

## What would change the answer

Neighborhoods with fewer than 10 bike commuters on our Census read aren't listed. These are five-year survey estimates, and the survey asks about all seasons without separating them.
