How Gem County compares

The same measures for Idaho and the whole U.S. Spending per listing divides a year of household spending on all home repairs, maintenance and insurance by the electricians counted, so it measures the demand for each competitor, not any business’s revenue. Households per establishment does the same with the official count.
