What these numbers say about landscaping in Pittsburgh

By record count, landscaping is the second largest of the 11 trades this site counts in Pittsburgh, behind other home service and ahead of HVAC. That ordering is a property of the source data's categories rather than a judgement about which trade matters most in Pittsburgh.

Per resident, Pittsburgh sits close to the Pennsylvania rate for landscaping, so the count at the top of this page reads as ordinary for the state.

The independent share of Pittsburgh's landscaping records is close to the Pennsylvania figure, so the mix of independent, franchise-brand and corporate-owned records here is ordinary for the state.

Address completeness on Pittsburgh's landscaping records is close to the Pennsylvania figure.

Pennsylvania publishes no business-level licence source for landscaping that a listing can be matched against, so the licensed share for Pittsburgh is shown as not published rather than as zero, and no landscaping 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 landscaping in Pittsburgh, so no churn figure appears on this page rather than a zero standing in for one.

No Bureau of Labor Statistics occupation maps to landscaping cleanly enough to print, so Pittsburgh carries no employment or wage figure for this trade rather than one built from an occupation that means something else.

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

Almost none of Pittsburgh's landscaping records are waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts above describe nearly the whole list.

More landscaping records first appeared in Pittsburgh 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.

One city inside Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, differs from the wider metro enough on landscaping to carry a page of its own.

Among the 9 Pennsylvania metro areas this site publishes a landscaping page for, Pittsburgh is 3rd of 9 by records per resident, around the middle. The field is the metro areas this site publishes a landscaping page for rather than every metro area in Pennsylvania.

Ordered by landscaping records per resident across every metro area this site publishes a landscaping page for, the hubs either side of Pittsburgh are Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood above it and York-Hanover below it.
