Where people work relative to home by state

Workers aged 16 and over by workplace: in their county of residence, in another county of the same state, or in another state (the three groups add to 100%). From the American Community Survey 2025 1-year estimates (survey estimates with margins of error, larger in small states). Percentages are derived by Quadranac from the published counts.
