Abstract
The basic argument of this paper is that the journey to work has a different meaning for women than for men. Unlike men, women's Home-role requirements are important predictors of the length of their journey to work. Data from the NLS survey of women aged thirty to forty-four are examined. The main findings are that women with demanding home roles have shorter journeys to work, and that, although black women have longer journeys to work than white women, this is a function of residence and not of differences in the relationship of the home role to the length of journey to work.
