Google this week released a “mobility report” cataloging how people across 131 have altered their usual movement habits during the coronavirus outbreak.
The data compares aggregated location data taken most recently on March 29 to data from the beginning of this year to provide a baseline for normal attendance.
For the US Google broke its data down state by state to show how attendance at retail and recreation sites (e.g. restaurants, movie theatres, museums), groceries and pharmacies, parks, transit stations, workplaces, and residential locations have changed.
The US has not imposed a nationwide lockdown standard, leaving states to decide for themselves what measures should be implemented.
Foot traffic to recreational locations, grocery stores, transit stops, and workplaces is down across the board — but attendance at parks varies wildly, with Nebraska, Ohio, and South Dakota seeing spikes of over 100%.
Here is how life in every state has changed according to Google’s data:
