The two charts illustrate the comparative statistics on the number of 

principal causes of travelling in and out from the UK in 2007.  

Overall, looking for work is the main purpose of migrating and emigrating 

to the UK while no reason stated had the lowest percentage of arrivals in 

the UK during 2007. With  regards to emigration, formal studies garnered 

the lowest fraction. 

On the one hand, landing a worthy profession was consistently high in 

reasons for both going in and out of the country, 30% and 29% 

respectively.  There is a big difference in the percentage of formal studies 

in the UK, which gained 26% whereas only 4% were recorded of the 

number of people who studied outside of the UK in 2007. 

On the other hand, there is a slight difference between migrating (15%) 

and emigrating (13%) if the reason was to escort someone. The same can 

be seen in other purposes where 11% left for migration and 14% decided to 

emigrate respectively. However, the percentage doubled when looking for 

a job for both going in and out of the UK 12% and 22% correspondingly. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The bar chart gives information about the 5 main intentions of commuting 

in public in the US in 2009 while the pie chart illustrates the data with 

regards to the main concerns of Americans in using public transportation. 

Overall, the main reason that Americans use public transport is to travel to 

their workplace and back home again whereas, they also highlighted that 

there are 6 problems that are usually encountered when travelling in 

public. The high cost of the fare topped their list while the area allotted to 

pedestrians was of the least concern. 

On the one hand, there are five main purposes why Americans travelled in 

public in 2009. The main reason was travelling to and from work (49%) 

followed by personal reasons and shopping with 19% and 16% 

respectively.  They used public transport for recreational purposes (10%) 

and lastly when they visited friends or relatives (6%). 

On the other hand, the cost of travelling is their main issue in using public 

transportation garnering 36% while concerns about their safety came 

second with 19%. The figures for aggressive drivers and traffic problems 

were  17% and 14% respectively. Accessibility to public vehicles and space 

for pedestrians were also mentioned with 8% and 6% correspondingly. 

 

 

 

 

 

The line graph illustrates the comparative statistics on the number of 

people who visited the UK and the number of British citizens who went 

outside the country during a 20-year period whereas the bar chart gives 

detail about the top 5 well-liked countries visited by the British people.  

Overall, the number of people who visited the UK increased gradually over 

the years. Similarly, the same trend can be seen in the British people who 

went out of the country for a vacation. France  received the highest number 

of visiting Brits in the span of 20 years, whereas Turkey had the least 

number of visitors. 

On the one hand, around 10 million visitors who went to the UK were 

recorded in 1979, it then reached a plateau in 1984 and gradually increased 

by almost double when it reached 1989. The trend kept on increasing in 

1994 up until 1999 when it received 25 million guests and almost 30 

million visitors respectively. The same can be concluded of the British 

people who travelled abroad, almost 11 million UK citizens left the 

country in 1979 and then it progressively increased up until 1999 where it 

reached its all-time high of nearly 54 million vacationers. 

On the other hand, France ranked first among the five countries that are 

listed in the data wherein it garnered almost 11 million visitors in 1999. 

Spain and the USA followed with nearly 9 million visitors and almost 4 

million guests respectively. The data also shows that Greece received close 

to 3.5 million visitors whereas only 3 million British citizens visited 

Turkey.
