For example, plotting driving times to nearest OTP at the tract level (left panel) appears to correspond to locations of OTPs, but by ZCTA (right panel) doesn't:

Looking at the data, ZCTAs with lower distances have higher drive times. Plus the count of OTPs within 30 minutes has fractional numbers, which doesn't seem to make sense.

Other drive time variables (e.g., FQHCs, MOUD providers) at the ZCTA level seem correct, it's just the OTPs.
