What these numbers say about roofing in Salinas

By record count, roofing is the ninth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Salinas, behind HVAC and ahead of pest control. That ordering is a property of the source data's categories rather than a judgement about which trade matters most in Salinas.

Per resident, Salinas sits close to the California rate for roofing, so the count at the top of this page reads as ordinary for the state.

The independent share of Salinas's roofing 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 larger share of Salinas's roofing records link to an active state licence than the California figure for the same trade. That measures how well two files join here.

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

More roofing licences were issued in Salinas over the last twelve months than lapsed, so the licensed side of this trade in this metro grew. Both figures come from the state's own status field.

More active California licences covering roofing in Salinas 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 240 workers across Salinas, and this site publishes 44 roofing 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.

Of the Salinas roofing records that are not independent, 0 are franchise brands and 1 are corporate-owned locations. The two are given as counts and not compared, because records here are still waiting on chain review.

Part of Salinas's roofing records are still waiting on chain review, which is what a name that meets the chain threshold and has not been classified yet is called. While that is true the franchise-to-corporate ratio here is incomplete and is not published as a ratio, and none of those records is described as independent.

No roofing record in Salinas first appeared or was flagged closed over the last twelve months, so this page carries no twelve-month movement for this trade and metro.
