Written from the Census figures on this page. Commute flows, distances and jobs are Census LEHD 2023, primary jobs only (the self-employed aren’t counted); commute time and working from home are from the Census American Community Survey; with 735 working residents, small shifts move the shares.
Why Canadice gets the Jobs & income grade it does
