The Pink Tax on Transportation: Women’s Challenges in Mobility

The NYU Rudin Center for Transportation sought to determine whether transportation has a "Pink Tax," a term used to describe the extra amount women are charged (typically 7%) for products and services, like deoderant and dry cleaning. To learn more about women's experiences while traveling in New York City, the NYU Rudin Center deployed a survey online. The survey's 33 questions asked users about travel habits, safety on transportation, costs of travel and caretaker trips.
