The Teletrac Navman Commute Index ranks the top 50 most populous cities in the U.S. using seven key factors, which we deemed most impactful when determining how bad a commute is. These factors measure the stress of congestion, the likelihood of a collision and the quality of roads being traveled on.
Using reports and research from various 3rd party agencies, companies and non-profit organizations – including the US Census and the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) – we ranked these cities by applying a ranking score to each of the seven key factors which were compiled into a cumulative score, which we call the Teletrac Navman Commute Index. The higher the cumulative score indicates the worst the commute in said city.
