Data Source - Image in Section "Mass transit use and car ownership"

edit

I was looking for the source of the information contained in the image comparing the % of workers using Public Transportation in major U.S. Cities in the "Mass transit use and car ownership" section (see: commons:File:USCommutePatterns2006(2).png ) ... but didn't see any information in the image itself or referenced in the description for the image. Does anyone know the source? (Obviously, I'm concerned about WP:CITE and WP:V -- but I was genuinely curious about how the stats had changed since 2006 and was thinking about making an updated version, thus my curiosity about the source of the data...)

It looks like the original author might have been User:Arturoramos, who appears to still be active. pburka (talk) 03:21, 9 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

The source is the US Census American Community Survey. I can work on updating it with the latest data and making sure it is correctly sourced. All US government data is open sourced so there are no copyright issues. See this table of updated data from 2019 [1][2]

Here is the updated graphic. I will update the articles that contain it.
