What the data says about Paterson
Paterson'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are the core laundromat audience: many buildings have no in-unit washer, and shared basement laundry rooms are often outdated.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: one flagship street store to start
In a 160,463-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.
