What Goes Into Luzerne County's 58.8
Local Reseller Opportunity Index
58.8/ 100
Stands at 639 out of 1,822 counties past the 20,000-resident mark, and 308 of the 400 markets on this site. Scores climb with the supply of small employers, SEO-buying categories, towns, income and growth. The formula
Six public Census measures feed the Local Reseller Opportunity Index (LROI), a 0 to 100 score that asks one question of each county: how good a place is it for an agency to resell SEO, judged by small employers, SEO-buying categories, towns, income, new openings and crowding? Luzerne County scores 58.8, which is above the middle.
Two traits stand out in Luzerne County: it is a county where the employer count has barely moved, and it is a large market by population. The bars show where the county falls on each measure among all those counties.
- Small employers (payroll under ten) for every 1,000 residents 3.9 Many: 69th percentile
- SEO-buying locations for every 10,000 people 27.5 Near the middle: 60th percentile
- Cities and towns passing 2,500 people 23 Town-rich: 98th percentile
- Middle household's income (2023 est.) $60,165 Lower bracket: 32nd percentile
- Employer-location change from 2017 to 2022 -0.6% Below-average pace: 26th percentile
- Buyer-category density, average percentile 55 Tightly packed: 61st percentile
- 2025 housing permits for every 10,000 people 9.1 Slow permitting: 16th percentile
- Population change from 2020 +0.5% Near the middle: 45th percentile
Bars place Luzerne County among 1,822 counties of 20,000 or more residents, as the fraction of them with a lower value. Inputs: County Business Patterns (2017 and 2022) for employer locations and staff-size bands, the 2023 Census population estimates, SAIPE (2023) for income, and the Building Permits Survey for new homes.
The map of towns
23 Towns, One Service Area
Town count is where Luzerne County stands out: 23 places clear 2,500 residents and only 2% of counties list more. Home-service clients here do not serve one city, they serve a patchwork of them, and the page plan for each client grows with every town added.
The employer count has been close to flat since 2017 (-0.6%). At 327,388 residents the market is large, number 220 among U.S. counties. Where reseller SEO for Luzerne County web designers should start follows from that mix: the client types below put dental and medical practices and home-service firms first.
The raw picture: 7,166 employer locations (1,273 of them under 10 staff) employing 134,885 people, 327,388 residents and a $60,165 median household income. Population has moved +0.5% since the 2020 Census.
Whoever sells SEO here is selling to owners, not to a database, so the numbers above are best read as a map of who to call and in what order.
The pitch list
First Calls for Private Label SEO in Luzerne County: The Client Types to Try
Not every business type is equally likely to want local SEO, and not every county has the same mix. This ranks the seven groups we track by how plentiful their small locations are in Luzerne County.
| Where to prospect | The county in numbers |
|---|---|
| 1. Dental and medical practices | A crowded field at 1.5x typical: 334 locations, 242 of them small. The count is steady at +6% since 2017. Each office and each service line is its own page target. |
| 2. Home services | Typical density (0.9x) across 272 locations, 225 of them under 10 staff. The count is steady at +0.7% since 2017. Service-area businesses like these usually want to be found in every town their trucks reach. |
| 3. Landscaping and cleaning firms | 186 locations (149 under 10 staff), about typical for density at 1.2x. The count is up 13.4% since 2017. Recurring services are easy to describe and easy to price at retail. |
| 4. Law offices | 130 locations, 120 with fewer than 10 staff, at 1.4x the typical county's density. The count has fallen 17.2% since 2017. Firms often want a page per practice area for each city they serve. |
| 5. Auto repair shops | 109 locations, 102 with fewer than 10 staff, at 1.3x the typical county's density. The count is up 14.7% since 2017. A shop depends on nearby drivers who search by service and by town. |
| 6. Insurance and accounting firms | Near the county norm (1.0x), with 152 locations and 136 of them small. The count is steady at -6.2% since 2017. These offices sell on trust, so pages that answer local questions suit them. |
| 7. Real estate offices | Fewer than in most counties (0.7x typical), 55 locations in all and 55 small ones. The count is up 41% since 2017. Offices sell on local knowledge, which suits pages written for each community. |
Groups combine the Census categories listed on the methodology page; ranking weighs the count of locations under 10 staff and density against the median county. It is a prospecting order, not a forecast of who will buy. Method
Put differently, 616 small locations sit in the three best-ranked groups. The order is built from counts and density, so it favors where prospects are plentiful; your own contacts and references should override it whenever they point somewhere else.
Town by town
Luzerne County's Largest Places and Their Share of the County
Population by named place in Luzerne County, largest first. A local service client typically needs pages for the towns it serves, which makes this list the starting point for scoping.
| No. | Place | 2023 population estimate | Portion of the county |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wilkes-Barre | 44,254 | 14% |
| 2 | Hazleton | 30,037 | 9% |
| 3 | Kingston | 13,331 | 4% |
| 4 | Nanticoke | 10,615 | 3% |
| 5 | Pittston | 7,638 | 2% |
| 6 | Plymouth | 5,755 | 2% |
Population figures are Census estimates, and cities, towns and census-designated places all qualify. A city shared with a neighboring county shows just its Luzerne County population here.
Wilkes-Barre leads with 14% of residents, yet 22 other places pass 2,500, so reaching customers across Luzerne County means looking beyond the biggest town. As a rough illustration, a client that sells six services in each of the 23 places above 2,500 residents would have 138 service-and-town combinations; the startup fee covers the design, development and optimization of up to about 1,000 landing pages per client.

| 15 | Roofers | 20 | 19 | 0.6 (1.1x) | -4.8% |
All fifteen categories in the Census files, ranked by the number of employer locations in Luzerne County. The multiple in brackets divides Luzerne County's density by the median county's, so 1.0x means level with it. County Business Patterns (2017, 2022); one-person businesses without staff are not in it. Method
The three largest categories by locations are restaurants (293), physician practices (237) and law offices (130). Density is highest in salons (1.9x typical) and physician practices (1.8x typical), where owners can see the most neighbors. The thinnest of the sizable categories is real estate offices, at 0.7x the typical county. Real estate offices grew fastest, +41% since 2017. The count of restaurants has shrunk 2.3% since 2017.
New construction
Luzerne County Builds Less Than It Did in 2021
Bars show housing units approved by building permit. The yearly county permit files and a matching January to August comparison are Census Bureau products. Permits come before construction, and not all become houses.
