Clinicians: physical therapists on the US clinician registry (NPPES/CMS) with a practice location in the state, snapshot August 10, 2026. A record is a licensed clinician, not an available candidate. Residents: U.S. Census Bureau Vintage 2025 estimates (July 1, 2025). 50 states and DC; territories and registered nurses are left out because the registry undercounts them. Figures may be quoted with attribution to Kandidate (kandidate.io).
