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.

  • Register-based employment for the kommune: employed_by_residence counts people who live here and have a job anywhere; employed_by_workplace counts jobs located here. workplace_ratio above 1 means the kommune imports workers. Trends compare the latest year to the previous and to five years back, for the kommune and for Norway. Nothing here is about the address or its residents.

Fields

7 of 12 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.
