MTA facts and figures: Ridership, station history and more

Ridership
According to the MTA, average subway ridership on a weekday in 2015 was 5.7 million. Annual ridership for all of 2015 was 1.76 billion. Both are the highest ridership numbers the city has seen since 1948, according to the MTA. But even though it feels like it couldn't possibly get more crowded on the 6 train at rush hour, New York City is actually not the most crowded subway system. The MTA says NYC ranked No. 7 in annual ridership in 2015, behind Tokyo (3.41 billion), Beijing (3.41 billion), Shanghai (3.07 billion), Seoul (2.62 billion), Moscow (2.45 billion), and Guangzhou (2.4 billion).

With no changes, the A train takes the top prize with more than 31 miles between 207th Street in Manhattan and Far Rockaway in Queens, the MTA reports. At more than 38 miles, the longest ride with a transfer will take you from the 2 train at 241st Street in the Bronx to the A train station in Far Rockaway, Queens.
