Mapping and analysis: Example

• How have commuting flows to London boroughs changed between 1991 and 2001?

• Focus on the changes in flows within London and those arriving from the rest of England and Wales

• Aggregate statistics from the SWS for 1991 and 2001 suggest an overall increase of 20% in the commuting flows into London boroughs from 2.1 to 2.5 million persons per day

• Increase in flows from outside London is much smaller (8.6%) than the increase in inflows from other London boroughs (25%);

• Largest increase in commuting (nearly 60%) during the 1990s was taking place within boroughs

• Look at variations across London between boroughs
