What these numbers say about Urban Honolulu

Other home service is Urban Honolulu's largest trade, and more than half of every record this site holds here sits in it. It holds more than three times as many records as electrical, the next largest.

In order, Urban Honolulu's four largest trades are other home service, electrical, plumbing and flooring. Other home service alone reaches half of every record on this page.

All eleven trades carry at least one record in Urban Honolulu. The smallest of them here is pool.

Urban Honolulu's three smallest trades are pool, pest control and roofing. Between them they still hold a workable share of the metro.

Every trade in Urban Honolulu clears the record floor a trade page has to meet, so each has a page of its own. That is a statement about how thick this metro's thinnest trade is.

Per resident, Urban Honolulu sits close to the Hawaii rate, so the counts here read as ordinary for the state.

Painting takes a larger share of Urban Honolulu than of Hawaii, which is the clearest way this metro's mix departs from its state's.

Landscaping is thinner in Urban Honolulu than across Hawaii, the mirror of the lean above.

Read per resident, the top of the table does not move: other home service, electrical and plumbing are Urban Honolulu's three densest trades, and pest control its thinnest.

No Urban Honolulu trade carries a measured licensed share, so every row of that column reads as not published rather than as zero.

No licence issuance or lapse figure is published for Urban Honolulu, so no churn figure appears here rather than a zero standing in for one.

A median hourly wage is published for electrical, plumbing, HVAC and roofing in Urban Honolulu. Of those, electrical pays the most and roofing the least.

Cleaning, flooring, landscaping, other home service, painting, pest control and pool carry no wage figure for Urban Honolulu, so those rows are blank rather than filled from a neighbouring occupation.

Electrical carries Urban Honolulu's largest published employment count: the occupational series counts 2,290 workers across the metro, and this site publishes 134 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. Plumbing, HVAC and roofing follow it.
