The Indianapolis paving market
State capital; large commercial and residential market. Indianapolis has a GeoNames population of about 830,000 and sits in Marion County. Indianapolis is itself one of the country's large metros, with a GeoNames population of about 830,000. It is the largest of the 10 Indiana cities in our directory.
Indianapolis's paving season typically runs April–November (about 8 months). Campaigns should be live by February, 6 to 8 weeks before the April start, and Dec–Mar is for retargeting, early-bird sealcoating inquiries and lower-budget awareness. 4 other Indiana cities share this season.
Cold-winter climate: Freeze-thaw cycles create a post-winter rush of pothole, crack and surface-failure repair calls, and sealcoating can only start once overnight lows stay above 50 degrees.
