How much do households in Texas spend on home repairs, maintenance and insurance?

About $33.1B a year, or $3,015 per household. That is in line with the U.S. average (an index of 100, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 16,757 home repair companies on map listings, it comes to $2M per company. It is estimated from the incomes of the 10,992,816 households in Texas and national spending patterns by income.

How does Texas compare with the U.S. for home repair companies?

Texas has 15.2 home repair companies per 10,000 households, 23% above the U.S. rate of 12.4. Spending per company is $2M, 19% below the U.S. figure of $2.4M. At the national ratio of home repair companies to household spending, Texas would have about 13,645, against 16,757 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 627 households, against one for every 587 across the U.S. The official count rose 16.3% from 2019 to 2023, against +9.6% for the U.S.

Which market in Texas has the highest market score for home repair companies?

Among 37 scored small-town markets in or partly in Texas, the Beeville area scores highest, at 71 (upper middle). Among 140 scored counties in Texas, Chambers County scores highest, at 95 (very 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 55 for home repair companies (upper middle), #23 of the 50 states and DC.
