Questions
How many tire shops are in Ohio?
Ohio has 1,861 tire shops on map listings as of September 2026. 845 of them (45%) are chain locations. The listings count tire shops and tire dealers. Official counts show 764 businesses with payroll classed as tire dealers in 2023, down 5.9% from 2019.
How much do households in Ohio spend on vehicle maintenance and repairs?
About $5B a year, or $1,033 per household. That is 8% above the U.S. average (an index of 108, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 1,861 tire shops on map listings, it comes to $2.7M per shop. The spending figure covers all vehicle maintenance and repairs, not only tire shops. It is estimated from the incomes of the 4,863,191 households in Ohio and national spending patterns by income.
How does Ohio compare with the U.S. for tire shops?
Ohio has 3.8 tire shops per 10,000 households, in line with the U.S. rate of 3.8. Spending per shop is $2.7M, 8% above the U.S. figure of $2.5M. At the national ratio of tire shops to household spending, Ohio would have about 2,006, against 1,861 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 6,365 households, against one for every 6,381 across the U.S. The official count fell 5.9% from 2019 to 2023, against −0.4% for the U.S.
Which market in Ohio has the highest market score for tire shops?
Among 15 scored metro areas in or partly in Ohio, the Sandusky metro area scores highest, at 71 (upper middle). Among 25 scored small-town markets in or partly in Ohio, the Wilmington area scores highest, at 80 (high). Among 66 scored counties in Ohio, Delaware County scores highest, at 91 (very 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. Ohio scores 49 for tire shops (lower middle), #26 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 Ohio. It maps the tire shops 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.
