Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agent-vending-production.up.railway.app/v1/economic-location-compare?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to directly compare two or more U.S. counties across economic and labor market indicators using consistent, official government data. Prefer this over the single-county Local Economy Intelligence endpoint when your task is explicitly comparative or competitive benchmarking. Choose this over general demographic comparison tools when the focus is economic metrics like GDP, wages, employment, and business activity rather than population or housing.
Side effects
- Unrecognized county name or invalid FIPS code returns an error
- Metrics unavailable for very small or data-suppressed counties
- Growth metrics may be missing if historical data is insufficient
- Requesting more than 30 metrics triggers a validation error
- Non-U.S. geographies are not supported
