Questions

How many physical therapy clinics are in Georgia?

Map listings as of September 2026 show 2,016 physical therapy clinics in Georgia. 554 of them (27%) are chain locations. The listings count physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics. Official counts show 1,521 businesses with payroll classed as physical, occupational and speech therapists in 2023, up 39.2% from 2019.

How much do households in Georgia spend on medical and dental services?

About $4.7B a year, or $1,150 per household. That is 11% below the U.S. average (an index of 89, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 2,016 physical therapy clinics on map listings, it comes to $2.3M per clinic. That spending covers all medical and dental services, which physical therapy clinics share with other businesses in the trade. It is estimated from the incomes of the 4,074,366 households in Georgia and national spending patterns by income.

How does Georgia compare with the U.S. for physical therapy clinics?

Georgia has 4.9 physical therapy clinics per 10,000 households, 9% below the U.S. rate of 5.4. Spending per clinic is $2.3M, 3% below the U.S. figure of $2.4M. At the U.S. ratio of physical therapy clinics to household spending, Georgia would have about 1,950, against 2,016 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 2,679 households, against one for every 2,482 across the U.S. The official count rose 39.2% from 2019 to 2023, against +23.1% for the U.S.

Which market in Georgia has the highest market score for physical therapy clinics?

Among 19 scored small-town markets in or partly in Georgia, the Jefferson area scores highest, at 84 (high). Among 67 scored counties in Georgia, Jackson 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. Georgia scores 57 for physical therapy clinics (upper middle), #21 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 Georgia. It maps the physical therapy 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.
