Business register comparisons
These charts compare the business register maintained by the U.S. Census Bureau, which is available in the County Business Patterns (CBP) and Business Dynamics Statistics (BDS) products; with that of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which is available in the Quarter Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) and Business Employment Dynamics (BED) products. Most of these are multi-page PDF files.
