What the data says about Kansas City
Kansas City's population has held steady since 2020. In stable markets the opportunity is in dense neighbourhoods where many households still lack in-unit laundry.
Across US cities, apartment residents are the core laundromat audience: many buildings have no in-unit washer, and shared basement laundry rooms are often outdated.
First read: street stores plus apartment buildings
Kansas City 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.
