A quick question about the nature of stops in the Neighborhood Patterns dataset. A CBG is fairly large, if I never leave my house on a given day am I counted as a stop to the CBG my home is located in?

Hey ! Thanks for the question. Yes, as long as the ping is part of a “cluster” of pings lasting > 1 minute. In Neighborhood Patterns, it does not matter where in the CBG the cluster of pings happens. The variable raw_stop_counts in Neighborhood Patterns includes stops by devices whose home area is the same as this area.
