What is Inverse Catchment?
Inverse Catchment shows where the majority of residents leaving your town travel to when they're going elsewhere.
Why use it?
Different places have different qualities and often that's how they differentiate. Yours might be great for leisure. Another for working. Learn where else residents travel to to assess what's missing in your area. Explore how that differs between catchment sizes and demographic groups.
