Jericho and the West End are apples and oranges. The West End's abnormal mode share is the high walking rates (47% compared to 27% Vancouver-wide). The neighbourhood transit rate is essentially at the city-wide average (19% compared to 18%).
I don't see many people in Jericho commuting by walking, at least until all the commercial, retail, and industrial uses in the neighborhood are completed. And even then, I imagine most residents will need to commute to Broadway or downtown, with a healthy share heading to UBC.
