The borough of Coal Center in numbers
Who you compete with in Coal Center
The Census counted 30 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 15423, which includes Coal Center and its surroundings.
Across Washington County, County Business Patterns counted 5,340 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 14,205 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. Washington County has about eight times the national share of oilfield and mining support companies: 56 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, field crews and operators hire on short notice, so the website should show services by type, equipment, certifications and the area you cover. The county also has a strong cluster of heavy and civil construction firms (44 establishments, 1.8 times the national share).
