Nearly half of the counties had a decrease in the number of employed persons, from the 4th quarter of 2002 to the 4th quarter of 2003. With the exception of Østfold, Oslo, Vestfold, Telemark and Møre og Romsdal, the changes were less than one per cent, according to new figures from the register-based employment statistic.

One out of three commutes

In the 4t h quarter 2003 31.8 per cent of the employed persons worked in a different municipality from the one the resided in, compared with 32.0 per cent the previous year. Akershus had the largest percentage of out-commuters, which means that an employed person is working in another municipality. The municipalities with lowest out-commuting were found in Finnmark, Oslo, Nordland and Troms, where less than 20 per cent commuted out of their municipality of residence.
