What the data says about San Diego
San Diego's population has held steady since 2020. In stable markets the opportunity is in dense neighbourhoods where many households still lack in-unit laundry.
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: street stores plus apartment buildings
San Diego is big enough to combine visible street stores with shared laundry rooms in apartment buildings, building density across neighbourhoods. The final decision comes from a territory study done with you before signing.
