Analysis of activity-travel patterns is an important component of any activity-based transportation planning exercise. Most of the current activity-travel literature focuses on studying the characteristics of workers. In comparison, little emphasis has been placed on studying non-worker activity-travel patterns. The results of an exploratory analysis of the activity-travel patterns of nonworkers in the San Francisco Bay Area are presented. The attributes of a nonworker’s overall activity-travel pattern are examined in terms of three dimensions: number of stops of each activity type, trip chaining, and the temporal sequencing of activities. Implications for transportation planning and policy analysis are discussed.
