The measure of jobs density is an economic indicator that identifies the level of employment demand. Jobs density is defined as the number of jobs in an area divided by the resident population aged 16-64 in that area. For example, a job density of 1.0 would mean that there is one job for every resident aged 16-64. We look at changes in jobs density year on year.

​

Jobs density is not the full picture, we also look at the movement of population and the vitality of the employment sector. A fall in population with a stagnant employment sector will produce a higher job density, so care needs to be taken in relying on this indicator in isolation.
