The Census Programs Behind These Bay County, MI Notes

Which program counted what, and when.

  • Six Bay County, MI Industry Pages and Why These Six

    Any operating business in Bay County, MI can send a request. Six industries have full pages because the county has at least 25 employers in each of them (County Business Patterns 2023) and because their cash flows share a pattern Harbordale is built around: money goes out before insurers, carriers or customers pay. The six are medical practices, dental offices, chiropractors and therapists, grocery stores, gas stations and c-stores and insurance agencies.

    Whatever the trade, a funding partner reviews the request and decides the outcome.

  • Where the Bay County, MI Industry Counts Come From

    Employer counts come from the Census Bureau's County Business Patterns for 2023, which counts establishments with at least one paid employee. No-payroll counts come from Nonemployer Statistics for 2024, a separate program on a different industry code set, so the two are never added or compared as one series. ZIP counts come from ZIP Business Patterns 2023 and place each business by the ZIP Code of its physical address, so they describe ZIP areas, not city limits.

In short

Harbordale Lending Group, a Bay City, Michigan funding service, takes requests from every local trade except trucking. This hub links six industry pages and adds Census-based notes on other Bay County, MI industries.
