City density does not explain the relative

There are many other differences.


Are there stats, like a list, so one can
compare countries and cities?


I generally start with a search at google.com Or perhaps
www.duckduckgo.com if you value your privacy.

You can try typing "bicycle mode share" in the search box. Or type some
other phrase is it sounds interesting to you.

Here's one result: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_share
