I&#x27;m interpreting that chart as tracking the year on year percentage increase&#x2F;decrease of the population and ridership.<p>So the population has more or less been increasing year on year since 2005, with a near zero decline prior to that.<p>The ridership has gone through a steep decrease which bottomed out at -35% in ~2005. Sure it&#x27;s been decreasing less, but isn&#x27;t it still decreasing? The ridership line is flat near the end, but isn&#x27;t it still decreasing at more than 20% year on year?<p>How else can the chart be read? How am I reading it wrong?
