Car-less commuting still a stretch in Metro Detroit

Ranking 34th out of the nation's largest 46 metros in terms of job accessibility via mass transit, Metro Detroit still has a distance to go.

Excerpt:

"The rankings use both city geography and transit schedules to capture the full door-to-door commute experience: from the first mile it takes to reach a bus or train station, to the wait once you're there, to the travel time itself, to the last mile reaching the office. They are also weighted by time, with shorter trips favored over longer ones. So a 10-minute commute gives a city more accessibility points than a 60-minute commute."
