The Marshfield business count, sector by sector

Marshfield shares ZIP code 05658 with the surrounding area, where 25 employer businesses were counted in 2023. Some of the businesses behind that number:

• Landscaping companies (4): seasonal service menus, the neighborhoods you cover and photos of finished yards.

In Washington County, the Census counted 2,118 businesses with employees and 6,288 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Retail trade accounts for 15.2% of the county’s employer establishments, ahead of other services (repair, personal care, organizations) (12.5%) and construction (11.8%). None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.
