Rankings use the same verified dataset as the HouseJester industry report: businesses with enriched public ratings and reviews, grouped by registered city. Counts reflect supply depth; ratings reflect the average public score for verified businesses in that city. Company registry data is used under the Open Government Licence. Last updated 3 July 2026.
