To date, most of this research has focused on understanding transportation insecurity at the national level. But there is likely wide variation in patterns of transportation insecurity by state, region, and city, with implications for policy. In this paper we examine what transportation insecurity looks like in Detroit. We do so by considering the following questions:• What is the prevalence of transportation insecurity in Detroit?• What symptoms of transportation insecurity do Detroiters experience?• Who experiences transportation insecurity in Detroit?• How is transportation insecurity related to transportation access and mode use?• How is transportation insecurity related to the costs associated with transportation?• How satisfied are those experiencing transportation insecurity with their ability to get around?
