Population estimates put the population change in the Ontario area from 2020 to 2025 at +5.0%, faster than the U.S. (+3.1%). With 3 optometrists and eye clinics on map listings, the Ontario area isn’t given a market score: the score needs at least 5, since one listing more or less would swing it.

How the Ontario area compares

The same measures for Oregon and the whole U.S. Spending per listing divides a year of household spending on all medical and dental services by the optometrists and eye clinics counted, so it measures the demand for each competitor, not any business’s revenue. Households per establishment does the same with the official count.

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. A small-town market is a town of 10,000 to 50,000 people and the county or counties tied to it by commuting. 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. The Ontario area has no market score for optometrists and eye clinics: the score needs at least 5 on map listings, and it has 3.
