SBA Releases Small Business Profiles for Each State
The SBA's Office of Advocacy has produced its 2008 Small Business Profiles for every U.S. state, which assembles from a variety of sources the most recently available data across a number of topics.
For example, the quarterly impact of firm openings, expansions, contractions, and closings on the number of establishments and employment in 2007 is provided. Also for 2007, demographic information on each state's workforce, bankruptcies, bank branches, and value of business loans is available. Other features, such as the breakdown of the number of firms and level of employment across different industry categories in 2006, and the net job change by firm size from 2002 to 2005, comes from the U.S. Census Bureau.
The profiles, which are published in various forms back to 1995, are available at:
