The number of cross border workers in Geneva continues to grow.
The number hit 100,000 in 2022. But by June this year, that had risen to nearly 109,000.
Canton Geneva alone accounts for 28% of all cross-border workers in the country – making it the canton with the most frontaliers.
According to figures from the Cantonal Statistics Office – the rise slowed a little in the second quarter of this year, but only by 0.3%.
