The U.S. Census Bureau today released the 2020 County Business Patterns (CBP) First Look data table. This preliminary tabulation includes the number of establishments; employment for the week of March 12, 2020; first quarter payroll; and annual payroll at the NAICS sector level (i.e., 2-digit NAICS) for the nation.
The final CBP tables for the 2020 reference year, scheduled for release in April 2022, will provide data at detailed NAICS levels (2- through 6-digit) and geographies (United States, state, county, metropolitan/micropolitan statistical area, combined statistical area, and congressional district).
