The Troy paving market
Capital region; residential demand. Troy has a GeoNames population of about 49,900 and sits in Rensselaer County. The nearest city with 500,000+ residents is Boston, MA, 136 mi to the east of Troy. It is the 13th-largest of the 15 New York cities in our directory.
Troy's paving season typically runs May–October (about 6 months). Campaigns should be live by March, 6 to 8 weeks before the May start, and Nov–Apr is for retargeting, early-bird sealcoating inquiries and lower-budget awareness. 7 other New York 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.
