What the California listings show

How big this set is

California holds the largest set of listings we have, 729 of 6,264 nationally (11.6%). The city links at the foot of this page are the practical way through a list this long.

Where the listings sit

No single California city holds much of the inventory. The largest, Los Angeles, accounts for 64 of 729 listings (9%), against a median top-city share of 23% across the 51 state pages. Searching by city matters more here than in states where one metro carries the market.

What we know these stores sell

We have classified what 94 of the 729 California listings sell (13%), from what each store publishes about itself. The chips below the store list break that subset down. The other 635 are listed but not yet classified, and a store missing from a category has not been ruled out of it.

How long these businesses have been trading

We have found a founding year for 87 of the 729 California listings, and 59 of those have been trading since before 2000. The earliest is Society of St. Vincent de Paul Los Angeles Thrift Store in Los Angeles, which dates itself to 1904. The other 642 listings publish no founding date we could find, so treat this as a floor rather than a count.

Review depth

The typical rated listing here carries 44 Google reviews, fewer than the 69 of the median state. The most-reviewed listing in the state is RC Willey in Sacramento, at 7,943 reviews.

Which brands turn up most

We have read the websites of 177 of the 729 California listings and recorded which brands each names. Across that subset the most frequently named are GE (107), Whirlpool (101) and Samsung (100). This describes only the 177 crawled sites, not the whole state, and a brand appearing on a store site is not a guarantee of current stock.

Method. Each paragraph above is computed from this database when the page is requested, not written by hand, and every figure in it can be re-derived from the listings on this page. Where a paragraph compares California against a national figure, that figure is the median across all 51 state pages rather than a pooled national total, which three large states would otherwise dominate. Nothing is claimed about the California appliance market beyond what these listings show.

Who owns the California market

701 of 729 listings (96%) are independents. The remaining 28 locations belong to 13 multi-location operators:

Operator In California Nationally
Ferguson Home 8 64
Barbeques Galore 5 8
Mr Appliance 4 40
A-1 Appliance 2 6
A1 Appliance 1 5
Affordable Appliance 1 4
Appliance Center 1 5
Appliance Connection 1 6
Appliance Outlet 1 5
Appliances 4 Less 1 23
Appliance Warehouse 1 11
RC Willey 1 7
Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove Showroom 1 7

Method. We hold no ownership records, so an operator counts as a chain when the same store name appears 5 or more times across our national database. That groups by name, so a chain trading under several names is undercounted and two unrelated stores sharing a common name are overcounted. It is a proxy, and we would rather publish it with its limits stated than not publish it.

Highest-rated stores in California

12 of 729 listings, ranked by Google rating weighted by review count so a single five-star review does not outrank a long track record. Stores with no rating on file sort last.
