Getting around
Among workers, 75.7% drive alone, 0.4% use public transit, 1.4% walk, 10.9% work from home. 6.6% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 37% below the state average (6.6% against 10.4%).

34.7% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 23% above the state share (34.7% against 28.4%). 12.1% of residents were born outside the United States, 91% above the state share (12.1% against 6.4%). The poverty rate is 15.1%, about the same as the state rate (15.1% against 15.3%).
Climate
The warmest month is Jul, averaging 84°F (28.8°C), and the coolest is Jan at 37°F (2.8°C). About 877 mm (35 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (129 mm) and Jan the driest (32 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
