• Abstract:
  The National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) is designed to provide a snapshot of demographic and travel behavior across the United States. While an essential part of the survey is to obtain details of daily person travel, it also includes an attitudinal component where respondents are given the opportunity to provide their opinions on several topics. These topics change in each NHTS, with the 2017 attitudinal questions focusing on the cost of travel and why people do not walk more. Other questions ask about active travel, the use of ride-hailing services, and how one might travel if a vehicle were not available. Each of these topics is explored in this report.
