External Communting of Workers to the City of Zagreb — a Contribution to the Typology of Spatial Mobility
Maria Oliveira-Roca
Sažetak
The grouping of external commuters
by their demographic and socio-
-economic characteristics and future
plans as well as by the reasons for
and the effects of commuting was
the specific aim of a research survey
that took place in 38 public
enterprises of different sizes in
Zagreb. A multiple choice type of
questionaire was answered by 918
randomly chosen commuters.
The main findings that came out
from a bivariate analysis using the
chi square test were the following:
1. daily external commuting is more
constant and stable than weekly
and longerinterval commuting;
2. external (especially daily)
commuting has become a substitute
for permanent migration to Zagreb;
3. the assumption that the majority
of external commuters are
autochthonous peasant-workers
was confirmed; 4. factors related
to spatial organization are rather
significant in the formation of the
commuting area of Zagreb and
influence the intensity of the
commuting flows. This is
particularly true for two of such
factors and their interrelationship
- - distance and transportation
networks. On the other hand,
commuting also affects considerably
the spatial organization of the
commuting area of Zagreb.
By means of the Cattell algorithm
four basic types of external
commuters to Zagreb came out
from taxonomic analysis: daily,
external, »permanent« commuter —
«traditional« peasant blue-collar
worker; daily, external,
»temporary«, female commuter —
»pure« white-collar worker;
longer-interval external, »old«,
»traditional«, »permanent«
commuter — »pure« blue-collar
worker employed in construction
and urban public utilities; longer-
-interval, external, »young«,
»recent«, »temporary« commuter —
construction worker, member of
a household with a vegetable
garden.
Four secondary types of external
commuters to Zagreb also came
out from taxonomic analysis: daily,
external commuter — »modern« peasant-transportation worker;
daily, external, female commuter
— »pure« blue-colar worker;
longer-interval, external, »young«,
»traditional« commuter and weekly
eternal commuter-peasant worker.
