Startups per Capita (By Jurisdiction)

Startups per Capita — By Jurisdiction

Operating companies per 100,000 residents. Counts every company still active -- only excludes ones confirmed acquired, merged, or defunct, since most haven't had that status checked yet and treating the unknowns as inactive would undercount real companies. Matches oluwadi's own Operating Companies count exactly.
