>>1827949>but nonetheless the observation is that the poorest and therefore most racially diverse income brackets have the highest share of commuters probably FORCED to rely on cycling for reasons of affordability, alongside a noticable bump in the highest income brackets who presumably have the LUXURY of bicycle-friendly environments. The middle class is stuck in carbrain suburbia.I almost fully agree with you, but my main problem is that (at least in my experience and on the places I've been to, outside of the rural US), poor people rarely commute on bikes, because they never can afford to live anyhwere near their workplace and bike paths are nowhere to be found in the cities outskirts, so they just either take the bus or ride a rust bucket.
But yeah, aside from that anecdote, bang on.
