Abstract

Washington D.C. metropolitan area is a region with highly educated jobs, high proportion of public sector jobs, and severe segregation by race and income. The metropolitan area has a radially oriented Metrorail system which gives relatively advantageous access to the central location of the city. This report question asks whether the Silver Line Extension (SLE) improved or reduced access to jobs for low-income workers in the region.
