This dataset provides Census 2022 estimates for distance travelled to work of people aged 16 and over by age (in 5 categories) in Scotland. ##Age A person's age on Census Day, 20 March 2022. Infants aged under 1 year are classified as 0 years of age. ## Distance travelled to work or place of study The distance between a person’s home address and their main place of work or study (Grouped). Address of place of work or study is used (along with home address) to explore the relationship between where people live and where they work or study. Used in conjunction with information from the method of travel question, the data helps to identify commuter patterns and routes and provide a reliable indicator for the demands placed on public and private transport. It is used to inform the balance of housing and jobs in particular areas and assess the need for services such as new schools. Information on where people live and work is used by government departments to define “Travel to Work Areas” - these are approximations of self-contained labour markets and are the smallest areas for which unemployment rates are published. Collecting information on both work and study address enables a more accurate count of daytime populations to be obtained, which is particularly useful for areas accommodating universities and businesses. It also allows the differences in travel patterns between these groups to be compared. Details of classification can be found [here](https://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/metadata/distance-travelled-to-work-or-place-of-study/) _The quality assurance report can be found [here](https://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/2022-results/scotland-s-census-2022-quality-assurance-reports/quality-assurance-report-education-labour-market-and-travel-to-work/)_
