Comparisons <strong>of</strong> <strong>Escondido</strong> with Close-By Communities<br />

B.3.3. Employment by Place <strong>of</strong> Work and Place <strong>of</strong> Residence for Selected<br />

Industries<br />

Figure B-3 (below) shows employment data for specific sectors by place <strong>of</strong> work and place <strong>of</strong> residence<br />

(bars with hash marks), obtained from the US Census OnTheMap (OTM) application. 2 The chart displays<br />

employment figures for just four sectors that are typically export-oriented and/or high-value industries:<br />

Manufacturing; Information; Pr<strong>of</strong>essional, Scientific, and Technical Services; and Administration &<br />

Support (includes Waste Management and Remediation). For the selected industries, the only<br />

competitive communities where the employment figures by place <strong>of</strong> residence are clearly outnumbered<br />

by the place-<strong>of</strong>-work figures are Carlsbad, Rancho Bernardo and Temecula. These cities have a surplus <strong>of</strong><br />

jobs, and consequently an overall inflow <strong>of</strong> residents from other communities for employment<br />

purposes. Within <strong>Escondido</strong>, the overall (all sectors) place-<strong>of</strong>-work employment figures exceed place-<strong>of</strong>residence<br />

figures by approximately 25%. We also know from data in TNDG's <strong>Escondido</strong> CEDS - Market<br />

Overview report that there is much cross-commuting into and out <strong>of</strong> the city (and other competitive<br />

cities as well).<br />

GIS system was used to extract the data points that were within Rancho Bernardo .<br />
