The figures for 1983 are not directly comparable with those for previous years because of the change from a registrant to a claimant based count in October 1982. The boundaries of the HIDB area and the travel to work areas shown, as being contained within that area do not wholly coincide. Some parts of the travel to work areas fall outwith the HIDB area and similarly some parts of the adjacent travel to work areas fall within the HIDB area.
