Why the caveats matter

Every figure carries the publisher's own caveats. Where a statistic is published for a wider area than the one you clicked, or where the publisher itself flags it as unreliable, the page says so rather than quietly rounding it off.

Before you use these figures

  • Company formations since 2021 only: CRO's own address data is meaningfully less complete before 2021 -- matching this figure to a county relies on that address, so earlier years would understate real registration activity rather than show a genuine decline. 2021 onward is shown because address completeness is consistently high from that point.
  • Not every registration resolves to a county: A minority of registrations carry no county-identifying text in their registered address at all, and are not counted against any county here rather than guessed.
