How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

  • Two sources, two years. Trips, distances and jobs based here: Census LEHD 2023, primary jobs, where the employer reports them. Income, poverty, unemployment, commute time and how people travel: Census ACS 2020–24 averages.
  • Two counts of out-of-state work. The Census survey asks workers where they work: 0% of Wall Township workers work outside South Dakota. The job records count 20% at employers in other states. The records use the address the employer reports and skip the self-employed, so the two can differ.
  • Straight lines, older transit. Miles are as the crow flies. EPA’s walkability and transit files use 2017–20 inputs.
