According to a new study, Philadelphia has twice as many cycling commuters, per capita, as any other big city in the U.S., especially in the central core of the city.
“It’s unusual to talk about South Philadelphia being comparable to Santa Barbara, California, but that’s what we’re seeing. There are very few places in the country where you see more bicycle commuting than you see in Center City and South Philadelphia neighborhoods,” – Alex Doty, Executive Director of The Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia.
Between 2000 and 2009 the percentage of workers biking to work grew 150 percent according to the US Census.
