2025 Small Business Profiles for the States, Territories, and Nation

Advocacy’s annual State Profiles gather the latest federal economic data into state-by-state snapshots of small business economic activity.   

The 2025 State Profiles provide state level overviews of business dynamics, small business loans, industry breakdowns, business ownership demographics, and small business exports. The profiles also present data about small business openings and closings and employment changes across the country.   

The 2025 State Profiles answer questions like:  

  • How many small businesses are in my state?
  • How many people do small businesses employ?
  • How many jobs do they create?

The files below contain the 50 individual state profiles, plus profiles for the United States, District of Columbia, and the U.S. Territories.
