U.S. Census Bureau Release Provides New Opportunity to Analyze Commuter Effects on Daytime Population in Pennsylvania
hide
The U.S. Census Bureau has released the first-ever estimates of daytime population in cities and counties based on Census 2000 data. The concept of daytime population refers to the number of people, including workers, who are present in an area during normal business hours, in contrast to the resident population during the evening and nighttime hours.
The estimates give planners and officials the opportunity to analyze an issue that is of increasing importance to cities and counties across the country: the effects of a growing commuter workforce. In light of recent events like Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the daytime population of
cities could figure prominently in future disaster and transportation planning.
