Abstract:
County Business Patterns is an annual series that

provides subnational economic data by industry. The series

is useful for studying the economic activity of small areas;

analyzing economic changes over time; and as a benchmark

for statistical series, surveys, and databases between

economic censuses. The series serves various business

uses such as analyzing market potential, measuring the

effectiveness of sales and advertising programs, setting

sales quotas, and developing budgets. The data are also

used by government agencies for administration and planning.

Most of the Nation’s economic activity is covered in this

series. Data are excluded for self-employed persons, domestic

service workers, railroad employees, agricultural production

workers, most government employees, and employees

on ocean-borne vessels or in foreign countries. Data

are provided by industry in the following economic divisions:

agricultural services, forestry, and fishing; mining;

construction; manufacturing; transportation and public utilities;

wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and

real estate; and services. Data are tabulated by industry as

defined in the Standard Industrial Classification Manual:

1987.

This series has been published annually since 1964 and

at irregular intervals dating back to 1946. The comparability

of data over time may be affected by definitional changes in

establishments, activity status, and industrial classifications.

For more details on these changes, see the section

‘‘Comparability With Other Data.’’
