I am not surprised of the this article because of the combination of more bicycles and narrow streets on the north side.

Because most people who commute to work via bicycle live on the north side, there will be more doorings overall. 

I wonder if there is a way to find information on how many commuters there are passing through a given area or corridor (like Milwaukee Ave or Lincoln Ave.) That way, you can find a percentage of how many doorings versus how many riders use a road. It'd be similar to crime statistics in saying "there were this many crime incidents per capita."

I thought they did do a bike count on Milwaukee once, not sure about other streets.
