What stands out in Pullman

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Pullman with communities in Washington or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2024, Pullman's workers who walk to work was 12.7%; Polco's model expected 14.4%. It fell short of expectations.
