## Methodology

Resident-based Annual Population Survey rates from Nomis. Published confidence information and sample-quality flags travel with each observation; unreliable local estimates remain flagged rather than silently promoted to precise facts.

## Visualisations

- [Confidence](https://londongraph.com/g/londons-labour-market?view=uncertainty): Show each APS estimate with its published confidence interval and quality flag. Caveat: Overlapping confidence intervals are not, by themselves, a formal significance test.
