What It Means
What these numbers mean for a Salinas rental company
Salinas is the largest listed market within 30 miles (the nearest 500,000+ city, San Jose, is 48 mi away). People in smaller surrounding towns often search with the Salinas name, which makes the city a natural anchor for a regional campaign.
Only 1 listed market lies within 50 miles, so plan for wide-radius or county-level targeting around Monterey County rather than a tight city radius.
