Sectors covered:
Note on disclosure: Because business activity in many ZIP codes is dominated by a very small number of establishments, the sales, payroll, and employment aggregates are frequently suppressed to avoid disclosure of confidential information. Establishment counts by size class, however, are not considered to be a disclosure of confidential information so a data line is present for every kind of business with one or more establishments within a ZIP code.
These data, classified by NAICS, are not generally comparable to ZIP Code statistics from the 1992 and 1987 Economic Censuses or to ZIP Code Business Patterns for 1997 and earlier years because those data sets were classified by Standard Indusrial Classification (SIC) codes. Less than half of the NAICS codes directly correspond to a category in SIC.
