According to the report, more than one million commuters come in and out of the city each day for work, with census data estimating that around 600,000 of those people are so-called "super-commuters," people who spend 90 minutes or more each day traveling to work.
New York City also accounts for a huge percentage of the nation's public transit commuters, with 38.5% living in the NYC/metro area.
This won't come as a huge surprise to anyone living or working in New York City. From the fight over congestion pricing to frustratingly slow buses and ongoing issues with crime on the subway, commuting to New York City is fraught with many issues.
