Each release is a 5-year estimate: the 2024 figures cover surveys taken from 2020 to 2024. Because neighboring releases share most of their survey years, the lines move gradually, and a sudden change such as the rise of remote work in 2020 spreads across several releases.

Keystone Florida Source: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 5-year estimates

The busiest time to head out in Keystone is 8:00-8:29 AM, when 15.5% of commuters leave home, compared with 13.1% across Florida. Early starts are less common than in Florida: 9.4% of commuters leave before 6 AM, versus 12.2% there. The morning rush is more concentrated than in Florida: 50.1% of departures fall in the two hours from 6:30 to 8:29 AM, versus 47.7% there. About 1 in 4 commuters (23.5%) leave at 9 AM or later, which usually points to shift work, flexible hours or part-time jobs.

When people leave matters as much as how far they go. Rush-hour traffic shrinks how much ground a 20-minute trip covers, so a trade area drawn as a simple circle often takes in neighborhoods that customers or staff would never drive from and misses others that are an easy trip. A drive-time zone, also called an isochrone, outlines every place within a set number of minutes of an address, which makes it the more honest way to size a store's catchment, a hiring area or the commute from a new home.
