What these numbers say about roofing in Syracuse

By record count, roofing is the fifth largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Syracuse, behind flooring 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 Syracuse.

Per resident, Syracuse carries far more roofing records than New York as a whole.

The independent share of Syracuse's roofing records is close to the New York figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.

New York publishes no business-level licence source for roofing that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Syracuse is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no roofing 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 roofing in Syracuse, 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 270 workers across Syracuse, and this site publishes 110 roofing 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.

Of the Syracuse roofing records that are not independent, corporate-owned locations outnumber franchise brands.

No Syracuse roofing record is waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above account for the whole list.

More roofing records first appeared in Syracuse 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 Syracuse differs from the metro enough on roofing to carry a page of its own, so every record here is answered on this page.

Among the 8 New York metro areas this site publishes a roofing page for, Syracuse carries the most records per resident. The field is the metro areas this site publishes a roofing page for rather than every metro area in New York.

Ordered by roofing records per resident across every metro area this site publishes a roofing page for, the hubs either side of Syracuse are Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos above it and Winston-Salem below it.
