What these numbers say about painting in Boulder

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

Per resident, Boulder sits close to the Colorado rate for painting, so the count at the top of this page reads as ordinary for the state.

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

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

Colorado publishes no business-level licence source for painting that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Boulder is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no painting 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 painting in Boulder, so no churn figure appears on this page rather than a zero standing in for one.

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

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

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

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