Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a ZIP code "best" for HVAC in Portland?▾
The ranking is based on AreaOps's targeting score (0–100), which weights Census ACS signals specifically for HVAC demand. Scores ZIP codes for HVAC contractors by weighting older owner-occupied homes with household incomes high enough to fund system replacement — the two factors most predictive of HVAC demand.
Should I target all top-ranked ZIPs?▾
The ranking shows demographic fit — not guaranteed revenue. Factor in your current coverage, drive time from your service hubs, and competition before committing to new ZIPs. A high score in ZIP you can't efficiently service still has real cost.
How do I import these ZIPs into my service area?▾
Copy the ZIP codes you want, then paste them into AreaOps's Quick Add tool or bulk-import via CSV. You can also use the targeting workbench to filter by score threshold and apply the results directly to your service area.
How often is this ranking updated?▾
Rankings are refreshed monthly from 2024 ACS 5-Year data. Scores change when a new ACS vintage is released, typically in December for the prior year's data.
