The commute: seventeen minutes, outward

ACS 2020–2024 five-year estimates, MCDC profile rendering, section E7 (universe: workers 16 years and over, 45)

Every working journey the town makes begins by leaving it. Of the 45 workers, 39 commute to work (86.7 percent) and 6 worked at home (13.3 percent — a commute class, printed in the businesses fragment at its exact meaning). Of the commuters' means: 37 drove alone (82.2 percent of all workers), none carpooled in the estimate, 2 used public transportation (4.4 percent), none walked. The mean travel time is 17.3 minutes — a short urban commute, consistent with the town's position inside the South Bend urban fabric, a mile and less from the grounds that hold the region's work. The direction of the flow is this section's whole economics in one line: the town exports labour every morning to employers it does not contain, and imports nothing but its residents' earnings — the defining account of a residential enclave, stated by the survey's tables rather than by characterisation.
