Description Commuting to acquire services, or, more specifically, retail services, represents, along with commuting to work and schools, a significant region-forming segment that participates in shaping a functional city system. The following article is a part of a large research work that was performed during 2010. The model area was delineated by the municipalities of the Brno-venkov district, or, more specifically, a 30-minute commuting distance by individual car transportation when overlapping into other districts. The survey attempted to depict the gravity profile of the Brno agglomeration's inhabitants in daily and non-daily shoppings, establishment of secondary commuting centers, popularity of shopping centers at the edge of the city and other aspects.
