35,741 of 39,351 directory firms run a single office. as of 2026-09-03. The cross-state count and the average-distance figure were last measured 2026-08-26 against a base of 33,792 and were not re-run. Geography is our most-audited field family at 97.9% accuracy against live sites.
Limitations
- Firms with only an HQ record are counted as single-site; an unlisted second office would be missed, so 91% is an upper bound.
- The starred figures, 1,188 firms crossing a state line and the 553-mile average furthest office, were last measured 2026-08-26 against a base of 33,792 firms and were not re-measured in this snapshot.
- Distances require two or more geocoded locations, so firms with an unresolved address are excluded from the mileage figure.
What to do with this
- If you have a second office, list it with its own address and phone, it is the cheapest way to appear in a second local market.
- If you are single-site, stop competing statewide in your copy and own the radius you can actually serve.
