Questions
How many pizza places are in Indiana?
Indiana has 2,884 pizza places on map listings as of September 2026. 1,964 of them (68%) are chain locations. The listings count pizza restaurants. Official counts show 5,396 businesses with payroll classed as limited-service restaurants in 2023, up 9.1% from 2019. That count covers all limited-service restaurants (fast food and sandwich shops included), not only pizza places. Official counts also show 827 one-person businesses without payroll.
How much do households in Indiana spend on food away from home?
About $10.3B a year, or $3,802 per household. That is 7% below the U.S. average (an index of 93, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 2,884 pizza places on map listings, it comes to $3.6M per pizza place. The spending figure covers all food away from home, not only pizza places. It is estimated from the incomes of the 2,716,009 households in Indiana and national spending patterns by income.
How does Indiana compare with the U.S. for pizza places?
Indiana has 10.6 pizza places per 10,000 households, 33% above the U.S. rate of 8.0. Spending per pizza place is $3.6M, 30% below the U.S. figure of $5.1M. At the national ratio of pizza places to household spending, Indiana would have about 2,032, against 2,884 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 503 households, against one for every 478 across the U.S. The official count rose 9.1% from 2019 to 2023, against +6.1% for the U.S.
Which market in Indiana has the highest market score for pizza places?
Among 15 scored metro areas in or partly in Indiana, the Cincinnati metro area scores highest, at 54 (upper middle). Among 25 scored small-town markets in or partly in Indiana, the Bedford area scores highest, at 66 (upper middle). Among 85 scored counties in Indiana, Hancock County scores highest, at 75 (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. Indiana scores 30 for pizza places (lower middle), #48 of the 50 states and DC.
How can I see the market around a specific site?
