What these numbers say about electrical in Rockford
By record count, electrical is the sixth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Rockford, behind cleaning 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 Rockford.
Per resident, Rockford sits close to the Illinois rate for electrical, so the count at the top of this page reads as ordinary for the state.
The independent share of Rockford's electrical records is close to the Illinois figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.
Illinois publishes no business-level licence source for electrical that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Rockford 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 Rockford, 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 370 workers across Rockford, and this site publishes 59 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 Rockford 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 Rockford electrical record is waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above account for the whole list.
More electrical records first appeared in Rockford 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 Rockford differs from the metro enough on electrical to carry a page of its own, so every record here is answered on this page.
Among the 3 Illinois metro areas this site publishes a electrical page for, Rockford carries the most records per resident. The field is the metro areas this site publishes a electrical page for rather than every metro area in Illinois.
Ordered by electrical records per resident across every metro area this site publishes a electrical page for, the hubs either side of Rockford are Shreveport-Bossier City above it and Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue below it.
