Employed Residents Aged 15 Years and Over by Planning Area of Workplace, Usual Mode of Transport to Work and Planning Region of Residence (Census of Population 2020)

Description

Census of Population 2020 counts of employed Singapore residents by workplace planning area, usual mode of transport to work, and planning region of residence. Transport categories include rail or public-bus combinations, car or taxi/private-hire car, other modes, and no transport required, split across the five planning regions. The figures describe usual workplaces rather than temporary COVID-19 arrangements and exclude full-time students and long-term overseas residents. Planners can study cross-region commuting and workplace accessibility. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder CT/17586.
