Three more ideas, written for you
Neur is drafting three more ideas for what you like, usually ten to twenty seconds. The five picks above are final.
How Neur picks
Room is the county's establishments per 100,000 residents against the state rate, from Census County Business Patterns. Types the county already has more of than the state are skipped. Cost uses Neur's startup ranges for each business type against your budget. Fit matches the interests you picked to the kind of work each business is.
The picks are a shortlist, not a verdict. A county with room can still have a crowded neighborhood, and the cheapest business is not the best one. That is what the report checks, for the one you choose.
