Summary

The Maricopa Regional Household Travel Survey, 2002, conducted by NuStats, in collaboration with the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG), was initiated to assess the travel patterns of households in the metropolitan region of Phoenix, Arizona. This collection contains data for 4,018 households in Maricopa County, and a small portion of Pinal County. Household recruitment for the study was conducted through the use of a "recruitment interview", in which respondents were informed of the survey, its purpose, and the obligation of all household members to complete the survey. Information regarding the household and its members was also collected during the recruitment interview. Participating households were assigned a specific "travel period" or 48-hour period on which to record their travel and activities, including mode of transportation, trip purpose, number of vehicle passengers, departure and arrival times, ride fare, and parking costs. Demographic information for this study includes age, gender, ethnicity, language, disability, education level, occupation, and household income.
