A web designer’s view of Pleasant Hill’s businesses
The Census counted 22 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 62366, which includes Pleasant Hill and its surroundings.
In Pike County, the Census counted 349 businesses with employees and 984 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. One sector stands out in Pike County: nondurable goods wholesalers, with 18 establishments and 3.6 times the national share. What their websites need: the catalog, delivery routes and how to become a customer. Trucking companies are also overrepresented (20, 2.8 times the national share).

Climate normals for 1991-2020 from Clarksville L&D, 5.1 miles away, put the July average high at 87°F and the January average low at 20°F.
