Manufacturing establishments, paid employees, manufacturing's share of private-sector jobs, employees per 1,000 residents and average annual pay, with the share of manufacturing jobs in food, chemicals, fabricated metal, machinery, computers and electronics, and transportation equipment (vehicles, aircraft and parts). From County Business Patterns 2023: establishments with paid employees, employees in the pay period including March 12, and annual payroll. Shares, per-resident figures and average pay are derived by Quadranac (all-sector total: NAICS 00; population: July 1, 2023 estimate). CBP excludes self-employed people, most government employees, private households and (for some sectors) railroads; employment is counted where the establishment is, not where workers live. Blank cells are not published for that state.
