What these numbers say about pool in Birmingham

By record count, pool is the smallest of the 11 trades this site counts in Birmingham, behind pest control. 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 fewer pool records than Alabama as a whole.

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

Alabama publishes no business-level licence source for pool that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Birmingham is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no pool 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 pool 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 pool 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.

No Birmingham pool record is classified as a franchise brand or a corporate-owned location, so the chain split here is independent records and records still in review.

No Birmingham pool record is waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above account for the whole list.

More pool 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 pool to carry a page of its own, so every record here is answered on this page.
