LEHD Commuting Data

| 0

This layer displays the net commuting flow for counties and census tracts from the 2021 LEHD Location-Origin Dataset. Other commuting data layers are also available in the same data release including out commuters, in commuters, and workplace area characteristics. These other layers can be found by searching for LEHD.

Commuting Distances

| 0

This layer displays the mean distance travelled by commuters, based on the centroids of the census blocks in which the reside and work. The mean was calculated excluding those records where the distance travelled was over 125 miles one-way. Additional data layers are available which show the proportion of commuters with a short (< 5 miles), moderate (5 – 25 miles), long (25 – 75 miles), or very long (75 – 125 miles) commute.

Missouri Commuters

| 0

This layer displays commuting connections between US Census Tracts. Each line represents a minimum of 20 commuters between any two tracts. Direction is not displayed, with the exception of commuters who live outside of the state of Missouri and commute into the state. Data was aggregated from the census block level using the LEHD Origin-Destination Employment Statistics (LODES) dataset (2017). Some tracts have two connections (with each tract acting as an origin and destination for at least 20 commuters), and the lines are overlayed, others have only one connection and there is a single line connecting them, however this detail is not possible to discern with this dataset. Limitations of this dataset include the lack of directionality, and the overall abundance of commuters between any two tracts. Thus, this dataset should be used for visual analysis only.
