What the data says about Oakland County
Oakland County's population has held steady since 2020. In stable markets the opportunity is in dense neighbourhoods where many households still lack in-unit laundry.
Unattended, app-based laundromats remove the two biggest frictions of the traditional model — carrying quarters and waiting around — which is exactly what renters in Oakland County expect from other services.
