True. Seems too small an area IME.

Define "too small an area". Round here you'd be looking at something
around 1000 square miles (15 to 20 miles radius) to get to 7,500
households.

I agree that 7,500 households doesn't seem enough to support a handy
man business, even if you only have to travel a mile or two for each
job. A 40 miles round trip would take a sizeable chunk of ones fee...
