- Here's a market snapshot of the Wilmington MSA (New Hanover + Brunswick) through a mobile-grooming lens.
Metric New Hanover (Wilmington) Brunswick (Leland/Southport/Shallotte)
Population ~246K (2025) ~167K, projected ~175K for 2025, growing ~4.5%/yr — one of the fastest-growing counties in the U.S.
Median age 39.9 56.1
Median HH income ~$76K ~$74K
Affluent pockets Wrightsville Beach ~$167K, Kure Beach ~$102K, Carolina Beach ~$88K Brunswick Forest, St. James, Ocean Isle, Bald Head, Compass Pointe
Housing ~120K units, 61% detached single-family; median home ~$388K, 2 cars/household Heavily new-construction, master-planned, HOA communities
New Hanover is the density play. Wilmington proper, Ogden, Porters Neck and the beach towns give you tight route density with above-average per-capita income (~$50K, about 20% above the NC figure) and a young-professional/family core (25–44 householders earn a median ~$86K) — the dual-income, time-starved, "I'll pay for convenience" customer. - Website

- Market Outlook / Competition
- Brunswick is the retiree/second-home play. A median age of 56 means a very large 55+ owner base with disposable income, small-to-medium companion dogs (doodles, Cavaliers, Shih Tzus), limited mobility or reluctance to drive, and strong word-of-mouth inside gated communities. Mobile grooming pulling up to the driveway is exactly the service this demographic wants — and HOAs, dog parks and community Facebook groups make it cheap to penetrate. Growth here is almost entirely in-migration of the same profile, so the customer base compounds yearly.
Competitive/operational notes-
Fixed-location groomers cluster in Wilmington; mobile competition is thin in Brunswick, where drive distances between developments favor a mobile unit that works one community per half-day.
Seasonality is mild; snowbird and summer-rental turnover actually add demand. - Opportunities for Growth
- The mobile pet grooming industry continues to experience strong consumer demand, fueled by growing pet ownership and an increasing preference for convenient, personalized pet care services. Mobile grooming offers pet owners a convenient alternative to traditional salons, providing professional services directly at the customer’s home.
