Figures cover the ZIP codes the U.S. Postal Service assigns to Brisbane (94005). ZIP areas are not municipal boundaries: they can extend beyond city limits and are shared between neighbouring places. This is a count of establishments in Brisbane's ZIP codes, not a count of businesses inside its city limits.
Establishments by size
Employee-count distribution. For most buyers the businesses worth pursuing sit in the 5 to 49 range: large enough to have a manager and real systems, small enough to be owner-operated.
| Employees | Establishments | Share | Distribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-4 | 3 | 75.0% |

Rate-cycle exposure is severe and equipment debt is usually understated in seller financials. Dedicated contract lanes are worth far more than spot exposure.
