Counted from SAM.gov entity registrations, matched to each program by NAICS sector. “Limited” means fewer than 75 matching employers within the radius. A registration shows a company filed in that sector; it is not a measure of headcount, current hiring, or job openings. Companies with no NAICS on file are counted in the area total only, so the matched figure is a floor.
