Between 2020 and 2025, the population of Delta County declined 0.8%, against +3.1% for the U.S. With 3 barbershops on map listings, Delta County isn’t given a market score: the score needs at least 5, since one listing more or less would swing it.

How Delta County compares

The same measures for Michigan and the whole U.S. Spending per listing divides a year of household spending on all personal care products and services by the barbershops counted, so it measures the demand for each competitor, not any business’s revenue. Households per establishment does the same with the official count.
