What this means

Households in Kauai County spend about $30.6M a year on vehicle maintenance and repairs, or $1,294 per household, 35% above the U.S. average. That works out to $10.2M per shop, 4.1 times the U.S. figure of $2.5M. The spending figure covers all vehicle maintenance and repairs, not only tire shops.

Kauai County has 3 tire shops on map listings as of September 2026. Per 10,000 households, that is 1.3, 66% below the U.S. rate of 3.8.

Official counts don’t publish a figure for tire dealers in Kauai County, since they leave out counts under 3.

Population estimates put the population change in Kauai County from 2020 to 2025 at +0.3%, slower than the U.S. (+3.1%). With 3 tire shops on map listings, Kauai County isn’t given a market score: the score needs at least 5, since one listing more or less would swing it.

How Kauai County compares

The same measures for Hawaii and the whole U.S. Spending per listing divides a year of household spending on all vehicle maintenance and repairs by the tire shops counted, so it measures the demand for each competitor, not any business’s revenue. Households per establishment does the same with the official count.
