| description | This paper discusses changes in employee commuting in the ten largest Slovenian employment centers from 2000 to 2009. Based on analysis of the SRDAP database, changes are presented in employee commuter routes between source and target municipalities. The results show a significant increase in both the scope of employee commuting and number of routes. Reasons for these changes are explained by the construction of freeway infrastructure, which has made it possible to travel faster from one municipality to another and to commute to employment centers. The scope and direction of commuting also depend on changes in the socioeconomic structure of the urban system, especially suburbanization, the economic crisis affecting local employment centers, and changing job locations within the regions themselves. |
