Why the months differ by state

Each state publishes its registry on its own schedule and several run weeks behind. Texas posts to its public feed on roughly a three week lag, for example. We publish a month only once the state's own publishing has run past the end of it, so an upstream delay never shows up here as a drop in business formation. Each state page lists the exact date its data is settled through.

What this data is

One row per filed entity: LLCs, corporations, professional entities such as PLLCs and PCs, limited partnerships and LLPs. The exact set of entity types each state publishes differs, so these totals are not a like-for-like ranking between states. They are registration records, not surveys, and not a measure of how many businesses go on to trade.
