Businesses per 1,000 residents in each sector. A stronger colour means more compared with the other municipality in the row.

Comparisons use the figures we publish. These carry a little noise to protect personal data, so positions and ratios are approximate.

At least this many. When unnamed businesses (sole proprietorships, general and limited partnerships) are few, we don't show them, because of GDPR. Personal data
