Why Lakewood Is a Strong Market for Cleaning Businesses
Lakewood is the #6 largest city in Colorado with a population of 157,000+. Lakewood sits between Denver and the foothills, offering a massive suburban market of 157,000+ residents who want Denver-quality cleaning without Denver prices. The mix of established neighborhoods and new development creates diverse opportunities. The local economy, anchored by employers like Terumo BCT, FirstBank, Jefferson County Government, creates sustained demand for both residential and commercial cleaning services.
At $68,500 median household income and $480,000 median home value, Lakewood offers a profitable market for cleaning businesses. Service-oriented neighborhoods like Green Mountain, Belmar District, Applewood anchor recurring residential demand.
Colorado's semi-arid climate brings dry, dusty conditions and heavy winter snowmelt that tracks dirt indoors, creating year-round demand for residential and commercial cleaning. This sustained growth means cleaning businesses in Lakewood can build a stable client base while continuously adding new accounts.
Denver's Largest Suburb Is Your Next Growth Market
Lakewood's 157,000+ residents live in everything from Applewood bungalows to Belmar condos. With a median income of $68,500 and strong population growth, this is a market built for recurring cleaning revenue. MaidProfit helps you capture it.
