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

The independent share of Fort Wayne's plumbing records is close to the Indiana figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.
Far more of Fort Wayne's plumbing records carry no street address than across Indiana. What a blank street line is and is not is set out on the methodology page.
Indiana publishes no business-level licence source for plumbing that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Fort Wayne is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no plumbing 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 plumbing in Fort Wayne, so no churn figure appears on this page rather than a zero standing in for one.

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.
Of the Fort Wayne plumbing records that are not independent, 3 are franchise brands and 0 are corporate-owned locations. The two are given as counts and not compared, because records here are still waiting on chain review.
Part of Fort Wayne's plumbing records are still waiting on chain review, which is what a name that meets the chain threshold and has not been classified yet is called. While that is true the franchise-to-corporate ratio here is incomplete and is not published as a ratio, and none of those records is described as independent.
More plumbing records first appeared in Fort Wayne 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.
