How much do households in Texas spend on medical and dental services?
About $12.8B a year, or $1,164 per household. That is 10% below the U.S. average (an index of 90, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 4,932 optometrists and eye clinics on map listings, it comes to $2.6M per practice.

Texas has 4.5 optometrists and eye clinics per 10,000 households, 10% above the U.S. rate of 4.1. Spending per practice is $2.6M, 17% below the U.S. figure of $3.1M. At the U.S. ratio of optometrists and eye clinics to household spending, Texas would have about 4,082, against 4,932 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 5,202 households, against one for every 5,742 across the U.S. The official count rose 2.7% from 2019 to 2023, against +0.2% for the U.S.

Among 21 scored small-town markets in or partly in Texas, the Huntsville area scores highest, at 70 (upper middle). Among 78 scored counties in Texas, Johnson County scores highest, at 84 (high). Scores compare each market with others of its kind across the U.S.
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. Texas scores 35 for optometrists and eye clinics (lower middle), #40 of the 50 states and DC.
How can I see the market around a specific site?
Run a Groundwork site report on an address in Texas. It maps the optometrists and eye clinics on map listings near the site and sizes the households and spending within the distance you choose. New accounts get 10 actions over 3 days, no card.
