Total percentage of students that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary mode of transportation:
A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
Data is collected annually by the UH Parking and Transportation department. Percentages were determined by subtracting parking pass totals by total populations; e.g. if only 20% of the population bought parking passes, the other 80% must be coming to campus via other means as UH has no free parking.
This metric was generated from the academic year of September 1 2020 to August 31 2021; therefore, these data reflect COVID remote measures.
