Monthly motor fuel sales reported by states from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administrations' Monthly Motor Fuel Report, available at: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/policyinformation/motorfuelhwy_trustfund.cfm

Tax rates on motor fuel by type and state from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administrations' Monthly Motor Fuel Report, available at: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/policyinformation/motorfuelhwy_trustfund.cfm

All States levy volume taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel. Traditionally, State fuel tax rates could only be changed with legislation, but as of 2021, 10 States have variable rate motor fuel taxes. These taxes are adjusted at specified intervals annually, semi-annually, or quarterly. Adjustments to variable tax rates are announced by State tax agencies shortly before the effective date of the change.

The fuel tax rate is collected annually and therefore the semi-annual and quarterly adjustments are not captured in the data.

Monthly state sales tax collections is an experimental dataset published by the U.S. Census Bureau. It provides data for collections from sales taxes including motor fuel taxes. Data reported for a specific month generally represent sales taxes collected on sales made during the prior month.

Tax collections primarily rely on unaudited data collected from existing state reports or state data sources available from and posted on the Internet. Secondarily, states report the data via the Quarterly Survey of State and Local Tax Revenue. Data are updated monthly, but due to differing reporting cycles data for some states may lag.

The Bikeshare Scooter Systems dataset was compiled on July 11, 2023 and was updated throughout June, 2023 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). It is a list of cities served by a bikeshare and/or e-scooter system collected each year from 2015 to 2023. Some systems serve more than one city. The layer lists just the primary city served. Bikeshare includes systems that are open to the general public, IT-automated, and station based (contain hubs to which users can grab and return a bike) as well as dockless systems. The layer includes a count of the number of docking stations, the number of dockless bikeshare systems, and the number of e-scooter systems serving a city (if applicable) in each year. Counts are for systems operating at any point during the specified year unless otherwise specified by the field.
