The Census Business Builder (CBB) report presents data for your business type and particular location – all in one place so that you can easily use it for your business.
About Reports

You can export CBB data into a report that includes interactive charts, which are usable in presentations, applications, and more. You can also download and print your reports in CSV, Excel, and PDF formats.
