the coin laundry business is OK and will be good for the next 20 years in the USA, with these caveats:

1. it is very location specific, the proper location and demographics is the key.

2. the downside is that the best locations, are not in the best neighborhoods and you will not be dealing with the best class of patrons.

3. someone suggested here hiring a minimum wage kid to be on-site during business hours to supervise, sell soap, dry-cleaning outsourcing, etc. that is good advice.

4. if no-one is on site you will lose your profits in vandalism and sledge hammer theft, sorry for the truth.
