“Here you will find detailed statistics about U.S. businesses. Statistics are available on the characteristics of the businesses: their NAICS industry, their geographic location, their size, age, and much more. Additional information is available periodically on the characteristics of the business owners.
“Businesses are dynamic and the Census Bureau produces extensive information quarterly and annually about how firms with employees change in terms of their location, structure, employment, and jobs. Information about business births, deaths, job flows, and worker characteristics highlight the ever-changing business environment.
“Data tools makes it easy for existing and aspiring entrepreneurs to use Census Bureau demographic and economic statistics to grow their businesses and compare their operations with other businesses in their geographic area or industry.”
