Abstract
Recent evolution of commutations in Île-de- France. — The extent of commutations is strongly affected by the various sociodemographic characteristics of the working population, especially their professional group. Professional and residential strategies, i.e. the possibility to reduce their commutations when moving to a different residence or workplace, are also influenced by this characteristics. People living in Île-de- France who have commuted for ten years have, on the average, reduced the geographical extent of their commutations during this decade. The global increase observed on the whole population is due to a double process of modification of the structure of the working population and of the loosening of housing and employment. On an individual scale, the decrease of commutations has generally been achieved by changing the workplace instead of the residence. People are differently affected according to their sex and professsion.
