Abstract

It is common to analyze the urban framework of the settlement, that is to say the way in which cities rank in a territory according to their population. But another approach is possible by examining the number of jobs, which leads to the knowledge of an urban framework of employment. Hence two questions: is the hierarchy of large French cities according to the criterion of the number of jobs the same as that of the number of inhabitants? Do changes in the urban framework of employment lead to a change in the economic geography of France?
