COUNTY BUSINESS PATTERNS 
6/27/08
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. Businesses use the data for analyzing market potential, measuring the effectiveness of sales and advertising programs, setting salesquotas, and developing budgets. Government agencies use the data for administration and planning.
