How Elk County compares

The same measures for Pennsylvania and the whole U.S. Spending per listing divides a year of household spending on all medical and dental services by the primary care and pediatric clinics counted, so it measures the demand for each competitor, not any business’s revenue. Households per establishment does the same with the official count.
