Example calls

Relocation enquiry from a prospective resident

Hi, we're thinking of moving to Dayton, Ohio. How big is the town and what's the typical household income?
Agent
Happy to check that for you. Dayton's latest population estimate is around 136,000 people. The median household income from the most recent five-year American Community Survey is about 42,000 dollars.
Caller
That's useful. Can you send me the numbers with the source?
Agent
Of course. I'll text you the figures now with a link to the Census Bureau table they came from.

Caller
I run a plumbing business in Travis County, Texas. How many plumbing contractors are there in the county?

Let me pull the county business patterns for Travis County. The latest figures show about 310 establishments in the plumbing, heating and air-conditioning trade.
Caller
And roughly how many people do they employ?
Agent
The same data lists about 3,900 employees across those establishments. Would you like me to email a summary to your office?

Hi Mark, this is calling from Riverside Home Services. You asked about population growth in Riverside County. I have the updated estimate ready.

Go ahead.
