City fact page

Plumbing contractors in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Fort Lauderdale, Florida has 122 publishable plumbing contractors.

Plumbing work is 10.2% of every home-service record in Fort Lauderdale, against 6.6% across the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area: a higher concentration, and the reason this city is answered here rather than at the metro page.

Counts on this page are the publishable records whose Census place is Fort Lauderdale. Records in the metro that carry no Census place assignment are counted on the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro page only. Metro-level facts below are repeated from that page, unchanged, because they are measured for the metro and are not recomputed for a city.

The facts

Plumbing contractors in Fort Lauderdale
122
Publishable, unscreened records whose Census place is Fort Lauderdale. The metro page's headline count uses a wider universe, which includes records that are unpublishable or carry no place assignment, so the two are not subsets of one presentation.
Plumbing share of this city's home-service records
10.2%
Against 6.6% across the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL metro area. This gap, or the independent-share gap below, is why this city has a page of its own.
Independent share of this city's records for this trade
99.2%
Against 98.6% across the metro. Chain status is computed from how many locations a normalized name holds nationally; records awaiting chain review are never counted as independent.
Licensed share
Measured for the metro, not for the city
Scope holds the licensed share to one state and one trade at a time, and the linkage sample inside a single city is too small to carry its own share without a wider error band than the number is worth. The metro figure, with its universe and its undercount mechanism, is on the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro page.
Employment and pay for this trade
5,930 employed, $57,760 median annual wage
Occupation as the Bureau of Labor Statistics titles it: Plumbers, Pipefitters, and Steamfitters. Median hourly wage $27.77. BLS publishes this series for the metro area, not for the city, and it is reproduced here unchanged. SOC 47-2152 pools plumbers with pipefitters and steamfitters, so this employment figure and this wage cover all three occupations together and are not a plumbing-only measure.

Fort Lauderdale is one Census place inside the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area, and the metro plumbing hub covers all of it. What plumbing work involves is on the national plumbing page.
