What this does not say

Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.

  • Kommune figures for employed residents aged 15-74 in the fourth quarter, by where they live and where they work, not the commute of anyone at this address. A resident with several jobs is counted once, at the main one.
  • top_commute_destinations lists the five kommuner outside the home kommune that most residents work in, each with its share of all employed residents. Kommuner are in the 2024 structure.

Fields

7 of 11 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
