Just as packing a box requires strategy, understanding the U.S. demographics can help your marketing efforts soar! This article will store away the dry details and bring you the lively segments that make Public Storage's clientele so unique.

Who are the Customers? The Top Segments You Need to Know

Strap in as we take a fun ride through the top customer segments that make the U.S. storage scene sparkle:

  • I04 - Adulting: Hold onto your hats! This segment consists of diverse single renters transitioning to independence. Scored at 262, they're busy learning the finer points of adulting, like paying rent and folding their laundry (good luck with that!).
  • H03 - RaisingTheBar: These individuals are described as primarily young, well-educated renters working to improve living conditions in diverse areas. They come in strong at a score of 191, elevating the quality of their full-sized couches – one storage box at a time.
  • G02 - SiliconNation: The tech-savvy crowd, represented by affluent engineers, doctors, and businessmen living in urban areas, score an impressive 202 while ensuring their IoT devices have their own mini storage units.
  • I05 - Solos: Young singles making low incomes, heavily Hispanic and living urban lifestyles, make a mark with their score of 197. They might not have much, but they certainly know how to pack a punch (or a storage unit).

While we could go on and on (and we really could!), these five segments are the crème de la crème of Public Storage's customer base. They've successfully floated to the top like the last slice of pizza at a party. Just be careful not to let your marketing plan flop like a forgotten coupon!
