Why Buy a Senior Care Franchise in Cleveland?
Cleveland offers a strong existing market for senior care services, combined with strong potential for growth in coming years. It also offers a welcoming environment for employers — an important consideration for the home care sector.
At Senior Helpers, we know how important local demand, favorable business conditions, and the right location can be to a home care franchise. Here’s a closer look at why Cleveland ranks so highly among our available markets.
Local Demand for Senior Care
Today, seniors account for 16.0% of the U.S. population. This represents an historically high figure driven by the Baby Boomer generation. In the Cleveland metro area, the share of seniors is even higher, with 18.5% of Cleveland metro residents aged 65 years or older.
That number will grow even higher over the next two decades. An additional 21.2% of Cleveland metro residents are between the ages of 50 to 64, compared to the national average of 19.4%. Over the next two decades, this generation will increase the demand for in-home care throughout the Cleveland market.
Employer-Friendly Conditions
Cleveland offers a range of local incentives for small business owners. It’s also an affordable market for starting a franchise, with low to moderate costs for real estate, labor, and utilities.
The Cleveland metro area is particularly attractive for employers in the home care sector, with a large workforce and low labor costs. Employer-friendly conditions are important for the senior care industry, where caregiver recruitment poses a challenge for many businesses.
