What stands out in Salem

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Salem with communities in Ohio 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, Salem's workers who bike to work was 5.4%; Polco's model expected 12.7%. It fell short of expectations.
