Subway Rider Survey (2019)
This data contains survey responses on several questions about people's experiences with our mass transit system. The data was collected by Speaker Corey Johnson, who at the time was also the acting Public Advocate, through in person canvasing at subway stations in all five boroughs and through an online link. The survey was not conducted on a representative sample. Any missing data is due to the respondent choosing to skip a question.

Columns
Each source column, with the name and type we use to store it.
