Residential and social sorting along political lines structure Americans' daily interactions, often limiting encounters with opposing viewpoints. Here, we combine high-resolution anonymized mobility data from 11 major U.S. metropolitan areas with precinct-level voting results to quantify and examine individuals' experienced partisan segregation in urban areas. We find that residential context provides a strong baseline for political exposure, but experienced partisan segregation is also shaped by everyday mobility behavior, since individuals living in similar residential environments can experience different levels of partisan segregation depending on their daily routines. In particular, individuals who travel farther encounter more politically diverse environments, especially in highly segregated areas, indicating that mobility range moderates the relationship between residential and experienced segregation, while exploring a wider range of places does not reduce partisan segregation and may even reinforce it. Moreover, place segregation largely reflects political geography, yet categories of points of interest have distinct segregation patterns, with community places and social businesses tending to attract more left-leaning visitors, reflecting visitation patterns rather than local accessibility alone. Our findings show that experienced partisan segregation extends beyond residential geography and is also associated with the mobility behavior and visitation patterns that structure people's daily lives.
