What these numbers say about painting in Vallejo

By record count, painting is the ninth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Vallejo, behind roofing 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 Vallejo.

Per resident, Vallejo carries fewer painting records than California as a whole.

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

Far more of Vallejo's painting records carry no street address than across California. What a blank street line is and is not is set out on the methodology page.

A larger share of Vallejo's painting 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 Vallejo painting record sits inside California, the state the licensed share is computed inside, so that share covers nearly the whole metro.

More painting licences lapsed in Vallejo 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 painting in Vallejo 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.

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

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

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

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

No city inside Vallejo differs from the metro enough on painting 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 painting page for, Vallejo is 14th of 19 by records per resident, around the middle. The field is the metro areas this site publishes a painting page for rather than every metro area in California.

Ordered by painting records per resident across every metro area this site publishes a painting page for, the hubs either side of Vallejo are Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington above it and Salt Lake City-Murray below it.
