A web designer’s view of Arlington’s businesses

The Census counted 51 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 68002, which includes Arlington and its surroundings. Some of the businesses behind that number:

• Finish carpentry contractors (4): close-up photos of cabinets, trim and built-ins, and a simple form to describe the job.
• Auto repair shops (4): the services you do, the makes you work on, hours and a form to describe the problem.

Washington County as a whole had 666 employer establishments in 2023 and another 1,718 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Washington County leans toward heavy and civil construction firms (16 establishments, about five times the national share). In that business, public agencies and developers check qualifications first, and the website should show project types, equipment, bonding and licensing information and a contact for bid invitations. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
