Small business revenue

This dataset represents the percent change in net revenue of open small businesses in North Carolina counties calculated as a seven-day moving average, which is seasonally adjusted and indexed to January 4-31 2020. The data obtained from the Opportunity Insights data repository in Github includes the daily percentage change in net revenue of open small businesses compared to January 2020 levels. The data is then aggregated as a rolling 7-day average. Twenty-two of North Carolina’s 100 counties are represented in this dataset, none of which are non-CBSA (outside of both metropolitan and micropolitan areas). Additionally, only one county is identified as having high pre-existing unemployment, and two as having lower median income. As a result, the dataset disproportionately represents relatively prosperous metropolitan centers and does not represent other regions of the state.
