Do you guys ever wonder? It seems like there must be a boatload, even though they are usually not in plain sight.
I personally virtually never work more than 10 miles from my house and the norm is rarely more than 5 miles one way. And lets say there are say 6 tree services in my main work area that are doing most of the work there. And if you say that model is reasonably accurate to many other areas of the country, then, that's one heckuva lot of tree services in the nation to service all the trees in all the different geographic areas. And it seems virtually every area of USA has trees to be worked on. And it means if you go say 15 miles away from me there is a whole new set of guys doing the treework in that area, relatively close to me yet completely uninfluenced by me or me them.
It's just interesting to me that something like tree work that might seem to be kind of a specialized niche thing it actually widespread and the country is fairly densely populated with folks taking care of all the trees that need it in their area. Of course many folks may be commuting to do the tree work (I used to commute 1 hr door to door for years to work for a previous employer) but by hook or crook, the work that needs to be done gets done by those who prefer to make their living doing tree work.
And this concept brings to mind the amazingly huge amount of treework there is to do cuz the trees are Always Growing.
