Commuting Profiles - Missouri and Regional
Workforce Commuting Profiles provide demographic and industry highlights for area workers, as well as commuting patterns showing how people travel in, out, and around a region for employment. Often, workers leave their resident county for a job in another county or region, but at the end of the day their income is often spent closer to home. These profiles help tell this story and show the importance of economic and workforce planning, regardless of geographic location.
