City Concentration

The top 27 neighborhoods span 10 different cities, with Houston and Denver each claiming 7 of the top spots (26%).

Breakdown of top 27 neighborhoods by city:

Houston: 7 neighborhoods (26% of top 27): View city guide
Denver: 7 neighborhoods (26% of top 27)
Chicago: 3 neighborhoods (11% of top 27): View city guide
Orlando: 2 neighborhoods (7% of top 27): View city guide
Miami: 2 neighborhoods (7% of top 27): View city guide
Charlotte: 2 neighborhoods (7% of top 27): View city guide

Washington DC: 1 neighborhood (4% of top 27): View city guide
Minneapolis: 1 neighborhood (4% of top 27): View city guide

This distribution has practical implications for Dermatology Clinics operators: cities with multiple neighborhoods in the top 27 offer more site options within a single market, reducing relocation or expansion cost. Cities with a single top-27 neighborhood require more precise site selection: the advantage is concentrated in one area rather than spread across the metro.

The relatively even distribution of top neighborhoods across the 10 cities represented in the top 27 is consistent with a category where consumer demand is broadly distributed rather than concentrated in specific metros. For Dermatology Clinics operators, this means strong site opportunities exist in multiple markets: the key variable is neighborhood-level competitive conditions rather than city-level market size.

How can I use this neighborhood ranking to find the best location for a Dermatology Clinic?

National rankings are a powerful starting point, but your final site decision should be validated at the address level. StreetSpring's AI models project the survivability of businesses across the ranked neighborhoods of major U.S. metros, so agents and entrepreneurs can check an address before opening day. Survivability moves from one address to the next within any neighborhood: this ranking narrows your search, and StreetSpring's live tool scores the address.

For the most accurate assessment:

Consider neighborhoods in the top 27 as strong starting points
Examine city-specific guides for additional neighborhood options in your target markets
Use StreetSpring's address-level tool to evaluate specific storefronts within these neighborhoods
Factor in your budget, operational requirements, and target demographics

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I download the underlying data?

How often do neighborhood rankings change?

StreetSpring updates rankings quarterly as new data on business openings, closures, and market conditions becomes available. The current analysis reflects 2026 data. Because competitive conditions shift as new businesses enter or exit a neighborhood, the specific rankings for any given business type can shift between updates, which is why we recommend verifying specific addresses in StreetSpring's live tool before making a final site selection decision.

Are there good opportunities outside the top 27 neighborhoods?

Absolutely. This ranking covers 1,907 ranked neighborhoods across 22 cities. Many neighborhoods outside the top 27 have excellent individual locations for Dermatology Clinics. Neighborhood-level rankings reflect averages: specific addresses within any neighborhood can score well above or below the neighborhood mean. Use city-specific guides and StreetSpring's address-level tool to explore options beyond the top 27.

What demographic factors drive survivability for Dermatology Clinics?

For Dermatology Clinics, StreetSpring's model incorporates neighborhood-level demographic data including population density, median household income, employment rates, and consumer spending on this specific category. These factors vary by business type: the demographic profile that drives survivability for Dermatology Clinic customers may differ significantly from what matters for other business categories.

Can a Dermatology Clinic succeed in neighborhoods outside the top 27?

Yes, the top 27 neighborhoods represent standout conditions, but Dermatology Clinics can achieve strong survivability in many other neighborhoods as well. What matters is finding a location where competitive density is low enough and consumer spending is strong enough to support the business. StreetSpring's address-level tool identifies high-survivability addresses in any neighborhood, including those not represented in this top-27 list.

What is the difference between city-level and neighborhood-level survivability rankings for Dermatology Clinics?

City-level rankings reflect average survivability for Dermatology Clinics across all neighborhoods in a given city: useful for identifying which cities offer the best overall conditions. Neighborhood-level rankings go deeper, showing which specific neighborhoods within those cities rank highest. StreetSpring's address-level tool adds a third layer, scoring individual storefronts within any neighborhood.

What is the typical survivability range for Dermatology Clinics in top neighborhoods?

The top 27 neighborhoods nationwide for Dermatology Clinics average 87.7% survivability at a typical address. The average across the 1,907 ranked neighborhoods is 74.8%, also at a typical address. The gap between the two is 12.9 points. Each neighborhood's lowest and highest address are in the table above.

How should a landlord use this ranking when evaluating tenants for Dermatology Clinics?

Landlords can use this national neighborhood ranking to assess whether their property is in a location favorable to Dermatology Clinics, and by extension, how likely a Dermatology Clinic tenant is to maintain long-term occupancy. If your property is in one of the top 27 neighborhoods, Dermatology Clinics represent a strong tenant category. If not, StreetSpring's address-level tool will show the survivability score for your specific address and which tenant types score highest there.

Methodology: Neighborhoods are ranked on the typical address: the average Survivability Score for Dermatology Clinics across the scored locations within each neighborhood, as its metro file publishes it.

Rankings represent neighborhood-level conditions but do not account for block-by-block variation. Coverage includes 1907 neighborhoods across 22 major US cities. StreetSpring scores 500+ business types: 153 base business types, most of them at 5 price points, which is 569 type-and-price combinations you can choose in the tool.
