What these numbers are not

  • A percentile here is a min-max scaling of average rank across the entities that published the metric this period: the smallest published value scores 0 and the largest scores 100. It is not the share of entities below the value, and entities that did not publish the metric are counted in neither the rank nor its denominator.
  • The named indicators shown beside this brief are national or basin-level series, not measurements of Arlington County, VA; 30-year fixed mortgage rate (watch), Los Angeles + Long Beach container volume, annual (watch), Shanghai to Los Angeles container rate (watch) and WTI crude oil, spot (watch) are at a watch or alert level. They are context.
  • The occupation mix is the 47900 metro area's, from the bundled BLS OEWS release: OEWS does not publish a county table.
  • bls-qcew did not answer; its fields are empty.
  • BLS QCEW did not answer; no per-job figure.
  • Obligations are what agencies committed in FY2026 by place of performance: not outlays, and not the recipient's own location.
  • FY2026 closed 24 days ago; agencies report with up to a 45-day lag, so totals are still filling in.
  • Positions are ZIP or city centroids of the registered business address, not building footprints.
  • Sector and ETF names are a stated convention (lib/companies/sectors.ts), not classification by MSCI/S&P and not advice.
  • The indicator block is the NATIONAL set, filtered only by lens. None of these series is keyed to this place: they are United States, gauge, single-state or port series and they are shown as context, not as this place's own readings.
