What these numbers say about electrical in Columbus

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

Per resident, Columbus carries fewer electrical records than Georgia as a whole.

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

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

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

The occupational series the Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes for this trade counts 480 workers across Columbus, and this site publishes 39 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 Columbus 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 Columbus electrical record is waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above account for the whole list.

More electrical records in Columbus were flagged closed over the last twelve months than first appeared, so the file for this trade and metro shrank. A closed flag is a signal contributed upstream, not a confirmed closure.
