Commuter flows in Lancashire and beyond

Note

This page relates to the 2011 census and has been largely superseded by this Census 2021 related article.

Introduction

The 2011 Census provides information on the population in England and Wales, and table WU03UK details the commuter flows between local authorities: the movement between their local authority of residence and stated place of work.

This short article highlights the complex flows between the 14 Lancashire authorities and the rest of the country. The results are for usual UK residents in employment and aged 16 and over.
