What these numbers say about electrical in Fresno

By record count, electrical is the seventh largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Fresno, behind plumbing 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 Fresno.

Per resident, Fresno carries fewer electrical records than California as a whole.

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

A smaller share of Fresno's electrical records link to an active state licence than the California figure for the same trade. Read it as a measurement of the join between two files rather than as a description of any record below.

Almost every Fresno electrical record sits inside California, the state the licensed share is computed inside, so that share covers nearly the whole metro.

More electrical licences lapsed in Fresno over the last twelve months than were issued. A lapse is a licence that stopped being current, not a business that stopped trading. Both figures come from the state's own status field.

More active California licences covering electrical in Fresno have no matching record in open place data than this page lists records at all, and none of those licences appear in the list below.

The occupational series the Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes for this trade counts 1,980 workers across Fresno, and this site publishes 148 electrical records here. The two count different things, one an occupation across every employer and the other the businesses on this site, so they stand side by side rather than one against the other.

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

More electrical records first appeared in Fresno 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 Fresno differs from the metro enough on electrical to carry a page of its own, so every record here is answered on this page.

Among the 19 California metro areas this site publishes a electrical page for, Fresno is 14th of 19 by records per resident, around the middle. The field is the metro areas this site publishes a electrical page for rather than every metro area in California.

Ordered by electrical records per resident across every metro area this site publishes a electrical page for, the hubs either side of Fresno are Salinas above it and Toledo below it.
