What is the Groundwork market score?

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. Utah scores 47 for landscaping and lawn care companies (lower middle), #28 of the 50 states and DC.
