What the data says about Salinas
Salinas's population has dipped 1.7% since 2020. That makes site selection more important: we focus on the densest neighbourhoods and on buildings with strong occupancy.
Laundry is one of the few household chores that cannot move online. That makes a well-run neighbourhood laundromat a recurring, local habit.
First read: one flagship street store to start
In a 160,783-resident city, a single well-located street store is usually the first step, with apartment buildings added once the first operation is proven. The final decision comes from a territory study done with you before signing.
