This repository contains data relating to our book chapter on the anatomy of US megaregions, entitled: "On the road again: the geography and characteristics of American commuter megaregions".
We are sharing the full datasets here for others to explore.
There are four different files here, as below.
1. megaregions_data_master_011217.xlsx - this file contains full details of the megaregions in relation to their characteristics - including demographics and transport modes.
2. commutes-matrix.jpg - this is a graphic from the associated paper which shows the strength of connection between different megaregions.
3. megaregions-and-cities.jpg - this is a graphic which shows the shape and size of megaregions in addition to their major cities.
4. Megaregion Interflows.xlsx - this file provides more detail on the number of commutes between the megaregions.
