Explore detailed industries using Census concentration and scale measures. Similarity links describe measured characteristics, not ownership connections or legal market boundaries.

Census fingerprint field

Trace an exact fingerprint path

Follow the fewest retained reciprocal links between the selected Census screens; equal-hop routes prefer the lower cumulative percentile gap.

Compare pair

A path uses the fewest retained reciprocal fingerprint links between two plotted industries; equal-hop routes prefer the lower cumulative mean percentile gap. It describes graph reachability only and does not establish an economic supply chain, product substitutability, competition, common ownership, causation, or a legally defined antitrust market.

Coordinate contract

Axes rank each named measure independently across the national six-digit universe. No latent or composite position is calculated.

Network contract

The pair path minimizes retained-link count; equal-hop routes prefer the lower cumulative mean percentile gap. Every ordered step remains downloadable.

Interpretation boundary

A path uses the fewest retained reciprocal fingerprint links between two plotted industries; equal-hop routes prefer the lower cumulative mean percentile gap. It describes graph reachability only and does not establish an economic supply chain, product substitutability, competition, common ownership, causation, or a legally defined antitrust market.
