In a photo from Feb. 12, 2015, Alison Norris, 26, waits for a public bus in Detroit. Norris catches at least two buses during a 2-hour, one-way commute from Detroit to her restaurant hostess job in the city’s northern suburbs. She is among many Detroit residents without cars who often must travel long distances for low-paying positions in customer service or sales far outside the central city. Norris says there are too few jobs in the city. The city’s unemployment rate has been estimated at more than 18 percent. (AP Photo/Corey Williams)
