The graphs below show how people in a European city reached their office and got back home in 1959 and 2009 Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The following pie charts show how people reached their office and returned home in both 1950 and 2009 in Europe.

Overall

, it is interesting to note that the first pie

chart

in 1950 describes the average distance as 3.5 km with only 17 minutes of travel time,

while

the

chart

for the year 2009 shows the average distance at 19 km, which is nearly two times more than the average duration in 1950 of 42 minutes, which is almost double. Having a closer look at the first

chart

, it is remarkable that in 1950, most people were using their feet, which accounted for more than half at 55%, followed by public transportation

such

as trains and buses, which were both at the same rate of 15%.

In contrast

, the number of people who used their cars was double that of those using other methods. Turning to the other pie

chart

, in 2009, cars became more common, ranking first at 35%,

while

those who walked had the second highest rate at 25%.

However

, the rest of the methods—buses, trains, and other methods—were all under 20%.
