Firstly

, bus trips by US young ages were seen as the most popular transportation mode, reaching almost 40

miles

in 2020.

In contrast

, though having the same average in 1970, cycling experienced a significant decline at under 20

miles

.

On the other hand

, despite showing fluctuation, trains still rise up

at the end

reaching more than 20

miles

, showing a slightly similar length with taxi usage.

Furthermore

, whilst showing positive progress until the third decade, the trip length by car experienced a gradual dip in the

last

2 decades but still presents higher distance than in the past 5 decades, ranging approximately 28

miles

.

Conversely

, walking seems not too popular for children in most of the years as the length went down steadily and accounted for the shortest in 2020

although

a steady incline was reported levelled off at around 18

miles

.
