What these numbers say about electrical in Durham-Chapel Hill
By record count, electrical is the fifth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Durham-Chapel Hill, behind painting 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 Durham-Chapel Hill.
Per resident, Durham-Chapel Hill sits close to the North Carolina rate for electrical, so the count at the top of this page reads as ordinary for the state.
The independent share of Durham-Chapel Hill's electrical records is close to the North Carolina figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.
North Carolina publishes no business-level licence source for electrical that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Durham-Chapel Hill 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 Durham-Chapel Hill, 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 1,160 workers across Durham-Chapel Hill, and this site publishes 105 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 Durham-Chapel Hill 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 Durham-Chapel Hill electrical record is waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above account for the whole list.
More electrical records in Durham-Chapel Hill 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.
