Cities with the most headquarters


Summary posted by Jennifer Mahnken, Johnson County Library, on February 21, 2003.

Thanks to everyone who helped me out on my question about which cities had the most headquarters. I think everyone posted their answers to the list but here is a brief summary of sources where the answer can be found.

 

Dun & Bradstreet Sales and Marketing has this info.

-- Jeanne Creighton

 

OneSource allows users to search and find companies by a lot of different parameters including headquarters.

-- Pat Maurer, Raytheon

 

"Location Trends of Large Company Headquarters in the 1990s" (PDF)

-- Scott Bride, Denver, CO

 

You might be able to generate a report like this in S&P's Research Insight (COMPUSTAT data).

-- Frank Wilmot

 

A search on D&B Marketplace of headquarters sorted by metropolitan areas (city not available) provides a list.

-- Jenny Shangraw

 

That list can be found in the Rand McNally Commercial Atlas & Marketing Guide.

-- Francis R. McBride

 

You can do this with Zapdata.com, the brand new web-based version of theold D&B Marketplace Business Disc service.
