How this opportunity score works

The score is a weighted 0–100 research signal, not a site-selection decision. It combines, per category:

  • Demand (category fit for the population) — 30%
  • Competition gap (trade-area model, more room scores higher) — 25%
  • Demographic fit (income vs the category) — 20%
  • 5-year population growth (percentile) — 15%
  • Franchise availability (systems recruiting here) — 10%

Inputs: ABS Census 2021 (population, income, growth) and a trade-area competition model using OpenStreetMap / ABS business data where available. It doesn’t model rent, site specifics or local trading conditions, treat it as a starting point for research, then confirm on the ground and with the franchisor. See our methodology.

Survival & viability analysis

Cleaning viability: High

The cleaning opportunity in Noble Park - West scores 63 out of 100. With a population of 19,810, the catchment is smaller, so demand may support only one well-sited cleaning outlet. At about 1 existing cleaning operator, competition sits below typical metro density, an opening for a well-run entrant. Median household income ($72,700) sits below the typical comparable area in the state ($96,800), which can favour value-led formats. Population is growing at 1.9% over five years, ahead of the typical comparable area in the state (1.2%), so new demand is still arriving.
