This paper provides a literature review by fields of application of functional regions and functional areas. The application of functional regions, functional urban regions, and functional urban areas is mostly found in labour market analyses and analyses of other socio-economic aspects, in analyses of administrative, planning, and statistical regions, and in analyses of functional (urban) FunCTional reGionS and areaSThe notion of 'region' originates from Latin regio, meaning a landscape, territory, area, that is, a part of the Earth's surface. A region is a delimited spatial system and an expression of an organisational unity that differentiates it from another region (Abler, Adams and Gould, 1972; Gregory et al., 2009; Klapka, Halás and Tonev, 2013; Klapka in Halás, 2016). According to Vrišer (1978), the region is a specifically defined and organised area of the Earth's surface with an array of distinct features; the notion is also used for a certain administrative, economic, or natural spatial unit populated by a specific community. Thus the region combines specific characteristics that give it a certain degree of integration and distinctiveness that separate it from another region (Haggett, 1971; Abler, Adams and Gould, 1972). A region is distinguished by its physical characteristics (e.g. relief, climate, soil composition) or socio-economic characteristics of an area (e.g. attachment of rural areas to the city, historical political and administrative formations, economic orientation). If a region brings together the socio-economic characteristics of an area it is called a socio-economic region. According to Harvey (2011), socio-economic regions are institutional arrangements that facilitate the functioning of various flows across space and time.Spatial sciences distinguish between formal and functional socio-economic regions (Haggett, 1971; Abler, Adams and Gould, 1972;Claval, 1998). A formal region is an area of generalization of a variable, so it is internally homogeneous (Klapka, Halás and Tonev, 2013). Formal regionalisation is carried out by combining basic spatial units (BSU) at the lower level (e.g. survey districts, statistical districts, settlements, municipalities, post districts) with the aim of reducing the variance between regions (BSU groups) according to one or more variables. In contrast to formal regions, a functional region (FR) is internally heterogeneous, which is reflected in mutual complementarity and dependence of internal BSUs (ibid.). Following Ullman (1980), FR organisation is based on horizontal relations in a space in a form of spatial flows or interactions between parts (BSUs) of the region. Functional regionalisation is thus the procedure of combining BSUs into FRs with the goal of generalising the functional flows and spatial interactions addressed. FRs are thus understood as generalised patterns of flows and interactions in space. A FR is thus a system of strongly linked larger and/or smaller spatial units. Rather than dealing separately with geographical features and h...

“…By design, the clustering procedure will have conditioned the underlying structure of the interactions. However, the extent of the variation in the distribution of the workforce between the different Supergroups is indicative of the way in which demographic and socioeconomic characteristics shape commuting behaviours and the geography of interactions (Dargay and Clark 2012, Hincks 2012, McQuaid and Chen 2012. This is illustrated by the variation in the composition of flows based on the origin and destination of commuters.…”

“…The potential for applying geodemographic principles to commuting flow-data is considerable particularly since demographic and socioeconomic characteristics are known to influence commuting patterns and behaviours (Green et al 1999, Hincks 2012, Lovelace et al 2014. It is recognised that women tend to have shorter and more concentrated trips than men (McQuaid and Chen 2012).…”

“…The effect of socioeconomic status on commuting more generally has been exacerbated by major structural economic changes over recent decades which are understood to have intensified patterns of cross-commuting between urban centres, suburbs and surrounding hinterlands (Hincks andWong 2010, Hincks 2012). In this context, full-time workers have been shown to have longer commutes and a higher propensity to commute than part-time workers (Green et al 1999).…”

This paper aims to contribute to the area of geodemographic research through the development of a new and novel flow-based classification of commuting for England and Wales. In doing so, it applies an approach to the analysis of commuting in which origin-destination flow-data, collected as part of the 2011 census of England and Wales, are segmented into groups based on shared similarities across multiple demographic and socioeconomic attributes. k-Means clustering was applied to 49 flow-based commuter variables for 513,892 interactions that captured 18.4 million of the 26.5 million workers recorded as part of the 2011 census of England and Wales. The final classification resulted in an upper-tier of nine 'Supergroups' which were subsequently partitioned to derive a lower-tier of 40 'Groups'. A nomenclature was developed and associated pen portraits derived to provide basic signposting to the dominant characteristics of each cluster. Analysis of a selection of patterns underlying the ninefold Supergroup configuration revealed a highly variegated structure of commuting in England and Wales. The classification has potentially wide-ranging descriptive and analytical applications within research and policy domains and the approach would be equally transferable to other countries and contexts where origin-destination data are disaggregated based on commuter characteristics.
