Sources for San Diego: San Diego business tax certificates, California ABC licensing records, Overture Maps (reported, not confirmed), Los Angeles business registry. San Diego does not publish closing dates, so closings here are dated by when the registration ended. Los Angeles publishes only active businesses, so closings here appear as monthly records accumulate. Registry dates are when a business registered, which can differ from when its doors opened or closed. About the data
