What the data says about Philadelphia County

Philadelphia County's population has dipped 1.9% 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.
