Data Source
This Citi Bike Data has been processed to remove trips that are taken by staff as they service and inspect the system and any trips that were below 60 seconds in length (potentially false starts or users trying to re-dock a bike to ensure it’s secure).
- Limitation There were 7% user did not provide gender information and most of them (14%) are weekend users so we will not be able to tell if female are more willing to ride on the weekend then they do on weekdays, but we may still determine that male user are the dominant customer at all time
Findings
(1) The current major citi bike riders fall into young male group between 18 -20 but number of femal reiders increases over time as they are showing interest to start riding during the weekend
(2) The 1st and 2nd peak hours during a day would usually be 7-8 AM and 5-6 PM season-regardless
(3) As the temperature gets cold as winter begins, people tend not to ride as well because of the lack of comfort individuals face when riding in low temperatures. Therefore, at some point the ridership does not grow. However, the total amount of annual member have been kept increased over time in 2017
