What these numbers say about cleaning in Birmingham

By record count, cleaning is the eighth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Birmingham, behind flooring and ahead of painting. That ordering is a property of the source data's categories rather than a judgement about which trade matters most in Birmingham.

Per resident, Birmingham carries more cleaning records than Alabama as a whole.

The independent share of Birmingham's cleaning records is close to the Alabama figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.

Far fewer of Birmingham's cleaning records are missing a street address than across Alabama.

Alabama publishes no business-level licence source for cleaning that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Birmingham is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no cleaning record on this page is described one way or the other on the strength of a file that does not exist.

No licence issuance or lapse figure is published for cleaning in Birmingham, so no churn figure appears on this page rather than a zero standing in for one.

No Bureau of Labor Statistics occupation maps to cleaning cleanly enough to print, so Birmingham carries no employment or wage figure for this trade rather than one built from an occupation that means something else.

Of the Birmingham cleaning records that are not independent, franchise brands outnumber corporate-owned locations.

Almost none of Birmingham's cleaning records are waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above describe nearly the whole list.

More cleaning records first appeared in Birmingham over the last twelve months than were flagged closed, so the file for this trade and metro grew. A record appears when the source learns of a business, which is a different event from a business opening.

No city inside Birmingham differs from the metro enough on cleaning to carry a page of its own, so every record here is answered on this page.
