College professors - many colleges and universities are highly accessible by transit.
2) housekeepers - income is, of course, one factor that informs the decision to take transit...housekeepers and food-preparation workers...average less than $25,000 a year for full-time work in King County.
3) computer programmers - access. A lot of tech employers are located in job centers where transit is plentiful, driving is a major hassle and the cost of parking is astronomical.
And the lowest rate of transit ridership are highly paid professionals, including physicians and surgeons, aerospace engineers, chief executives — they’re all at around four or five percent.
elementary and middle-school teachers have an even lower rate — 3 percent...few schools are located in job centers where there’s easy access to transit.
Carpenters and construction workers also rank close to the bottom, and transit may not be a good option for many who have to carry tools or equipment to the job site.
Almost no real-estate agents and brokers use transit, placing them at the very bottom of the list. Meeting clients, driving to property showings and hosting open houses make having a car essential.
