  • The two counts above are measured differently and are both correct. Locations in Massachusetts is a presence snapshot of what operates there now; index opening records counts what opened inside the tracked window. A chain that already had 40 locations in Massachusetts and opened none reads 0 openings.
  • It is a count of OPENINGS, not of stores. Openings are diffs against the previous release, so a mature operator that finished its Massachusetts buildout before the window opened shows a large location count and no openings at all.
  • Dippin' Dots's opening records arrive overwhelmingly as supplier batches rather than as dated store openings, so they are labelled index opening records and no quarterly pace is published from them.

Dippin' Dots has no opening records in Massachusetts inside the tracked window. It operates there — the count above is a presence snapshot — but nothing opened while the window was watching.
  • 0 cities with index opening records in Massachusetts.
  • Spellings are folded the same way the city URLs are built, so "St. Louis" and "St Louis" are one city rather than two. The most frequent raw spelling wins the label; "Spellings folded" is how many the index actually holds.
  • Cities are NOT linked: a city page is published only where at least three brands clear the floor, so a link from here would frequently point at a page that does not exist.

  • A state appears here only with at least 3 locations. States below the floor are in the index but have no page, so this total is smaller than the national count.
  • Locations are a presence snapshot at the Q3 2026 release. They are not openings and they are not a change.

  • Every figure in this block is NATIONAL. It is identical on all 39 of Dippin' Dots's state pages and is not apportioned to Massachusetts — dividing a national percentage into a state is not a fact about anything, which is why no Massachusetts growth rate is published anywhere on this page.
  • Openings are individually dated records new to the index; net new is the difference between two count snapshots. The two answer different questions and rarely match.
  • Dippin' Dots's opening records arrive overwhelmingly as supplier batches rather than as dated store openings, so they are labelled index opening records and no quarterly pace is published from them.

  • Steps are irregular, so a pace is openings divided by the step's real length and multiplied by 91 days rather than a raw quarterly count.
  • A batch-suspect share above half means the records were created on an index-wide vendor ingest day or bunched into a few days of the step; it impeaches the timing, not the existence of the stores.
  • National figures. Not apportioned to any state.
