Geographic attribution relies on the declared residential address of the registrant, ensuring the figures reflect the administrative volume originating inside this specific territorial jurisdiction.

Analysts should note that administrative practices, office closures, and reclassification exercises can introduce administrative step-changes independent of actual economic developments. Direct comparisons with adjacent territorial units must account for differing demographic structures and local economic baselines rather than relying on raw headcounts.
