Working from home by state
This map shows the share of workers in each state who usually worked from home as their primary commute mode. It uses the latest Census ACS one-year table and includes DC and Puerto Rico; it does not measure occasional remote days or the full prevalence of hybrid work.
What does it show?
Working from home is most common in DC and parts of the Mountain West, and least common in Puerto Rico and the Deep South.
Methodology
Latest Census ACS 1-year detailed table B08301. For each state, DC, and Puerto Rico, divides workers age 16+ who usually worked from home (B08301_021E) by all workers age 16+ (B08301_001E). This is the primary commuting mode for the reference week, not the share working remotely at least occasionally. Parsed from the stable public table-based summary file for 2024; margins of error are not displayed.
