ABSTRACT
This chapter investigates time and distance of the journey to work in Greater Mexico City to assess inequalities in the mobility situations of workers. By analyzing a subsample of the journey to work in the Mexico City Metropolitan Zone 2017 Origin-Destination Household Survey, the study calculates average time and distance of the journey to work across 194 travel districts. Travel districts are then grouped into four distinct mobility situations: (i) Long Commutes, (ii) Short Commutes, (iii) Wormholes, and (iv) Transit Hells. Classifying travel districts into these categories allows an assessment of the spatial inequalities in the mobility situations of workers in Greater Mexico City.
