We considered networks of commuters for a city and an insular region. In both cases, we have studied the distribution of commuters? trips (i.e., home-to-work trips and vice versa). The identification and stability of the communities? cores are linked to the land-use distribution within the zone system, and therefore their proper definition may be useful to transport planners. %I American Physical Society %K PACS number(s): 89.75.Hc, 87.23.Ge, 05.70.Ln %P 042810 %T Community core detection in transportation networks
