31.0% of working San Franciscans work from home, 18.7% take public transit and 28.6% drive alone, according to the American Community Survey for 2020-2024.

The Census asks working residents how they usually got to work in the past week, so working from home counts as its own answer. Transit, walking and biking shares depend heavily on where a neighborhood sits relative to downtown and the Muni and BART lines.
