Method and limitations
Method and limitations
No missing value is imputed. Classification breaks and colours come from the catalogue, and source-declared suppression remains missing.
The area mean gives every published geographic area equal weight. It is not weighted by population, exposure or area size.
Parent-area counts are sums of the fixed-domain municipality observations; jobs per establishment is recomputed from additive totals.
