Business Analyst 2017 Labor Force by Occupation Data - Live or Work?

[StarrMoss]

Hello all:

I just downloaded 2017 data updates for Business Analyst Desktop.  One of the data-sets is 2017 Labor Force by Occupation - i.e # of Computer/Science professionals, engineers, etc. etc.  My question is whether or not this data refers to where these occupations live, or work?  Ideally, I am looking for where these occupations live.  Thanks in advance!

Good Afternoon Starr,  

Thank you for your question.  

Labor Force data refers to the residents in an area - the occupations of the people based on where they live.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
