At the U.S. ratio of coffee shops and cafes to household spending, Oklahoma would have about 1,484, against 1,642 on map listings.

Among 17 scored small-town markets in or partly in Oklahoma, the Duncan area scores highest, at 75 (high). Among 50 scored counties in Oklahoma, Rogers County scores highest, at 83 (high).

What is the Groundwork market score?

The Groundwork market score runs from 0 to 100 and compares a market with others of its kind for one business type: states with states, metro areas with metro areas, small-town markets and counties with their own. It weighs household spending per competitor (35%), households per business with payroll (25%), population growth (20%) and spending power (20%), each ranked against those peers. A higher score means that, taken together, the market has more household spending and more households for each business already there, faster population growth and more spending per household than similar markets. It describes a market, not any one site or deal. Oklahoma scores 49 for coffee shops and cafes (lower middle), #28 of the 50 states and DC.
