How Union County compares

The same measures for Pennsylvania 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.

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. Union County has no market score for electricians: the score needs at least 5 on map listings, and it has 3.
