Summary View help for Summary
The 2000 Sacramento Area Household Travel Survey, like all recent household travel surveys, relied on the willingness of area residents to complete diary records of their daily travel for a specified day. During their travel day, participating household members were asked to record travel information in a travel diary for the specified 24-hour period. The information documented by respondents includes trip activities, mode of transportation, trip times, and trip location. Demographic information includes gender, age, whether the respondent held a valid driver's license, whether the respondent was a student, employment status, household income, whether the respondent owned or rented a home, and household size.
