Footnote 1

For more information on distance from home to work, including the questions from which it is derived, data quality and its comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Journey to Work Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2016.

Footnote 2

The census assumes that the commute to work originates from the usual place of residence, but this may not always be the case. Sometimes, respondents may be on a business trip and may have reported their place of work or main mode of commuting based on where they were working during the trip. Some persons maintain a residence close to work and commute to their home on weekends. Students often work after school at a location near their school. As a result, the data may show unusual commutes or unusual main modes of commuting.
