Interpretation

How to use this lens

Thesis

This page tracks whether formal development activity is arriving alongside visible business turnover.

Why it matters

A high-high tract may indicate synchronized development and commercial change. A high-low tract may indicate supply landing before the retail mix responds.

Caution

This does not prove that permits caused openings. Permit counts and map business change are separate signals with different lags.
