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.
- National figures from the labour-force survey. These are NOT this municipality's employment or unemployment, and nothing here describes the address, its neighbourhood or its residents. SSB publishes no municipality breakdown in this table; a local figure would need a different source.
- A sample survey, seasonally adjusted, published monthly. Counts are converted from SSB's thousands to persons.
Fields
7 of 14 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.
