Which local services is Morgan County, IN short of?

3 home-service categories, each counted per 10,000 residents and compared against the national rate. 1 has fewer businesses per resident than the country average; 2 have more. Counts include sole proprietors.

• Cleaning Services10 with employees + 165 without = 175 · 23.9 per 10k vs 32.7 nationally
  1.4× fewerFewer than average
• Landscaping & Lawn Care27 with employees + 129 without = 156 · 21.3 per 10k vs 18.2 nationally
  1.2× moreMore than average
• Pet Care6 with employees + 40 without = 46 · 6.3 per 10k vs 4.7 nationally
  1.3× moreMore than average

What this doesn't tell you: These counts measure how many businesses exist, not how many customers want one. Fewer of something can mean an opening — or that there is less local demand for it. Treat a low number as a lead to check, not a verdict.
