Free estimate
Your revenue per year
about $35,796 a month
An even split of the local dining market across all 5 places, the 4 already open plus yours. Gross revenue, not profit: no rent, food, wages or fit-out is deducted.
Demographics and competition decide most of this number, and both change street by street. An average across Parker is not enough to pick a site.
Check Restaurant Feasibility at Your Location
The full tool runs this same funnel on one address instead of a whole area. Three things change when it does.
10-minute drive area
Instead of a county or city line, the tool maps everywhere a car can reach your door in 10 minutes along real roads at real traffic speeds, then counts only the people who live inside that shape.
Why it matters: two sites a mile apart can have completely different reach. One beside a highway ramp pulls from far more people than one behind a residential grid, and no administrative boundary will ever show you that difference.
Local customer demographics
Census age, sex and income are read for that drive-time shape rather than for the whole of Parker, so the customer profile you set above is applied to the people who could actually walk in.
Why it matters: a neighbourhood can run a decade younger or half again richer than the area around it. That mix is what decides your menu, your price point and whether lunch or dinner carries the week.
Fine-tuned competition
Every restaurant, cafe and fast food place inside the same drive-time shape is mapped and listed by name, and you can drop the ones that are not really competing with your concept.
Why it matters: this page splits the market evenly across 5 places, which assumes they all chase the same customer. A drive-through and a wine bar do not, and removing the ones that do not compete changes the number a lot.
Restaurant Gross Revenue, Considering Demographics and Competition
| Residents | 12,634 |
|---|---|
| Match your customer profile | 12,634 |
| Of those, eat out at all (85% industry assumption) | 10,739 |
| Restaurants, cafes and fast food already open | 4 |
| Diners per existing place | 2,685 |
| Your share of them (one place in every restaurant here, yours included) | 1 in 5 |
| Customers that works out to | 2,148 |
| Your gross revenue per year | $430,000 |
Parker has 12,634 residents. With the customer profile set above, 12,634 of them are potential diners, and 85% of those, or 10,739 people, eat out at all. There are already 4 restaurants, cafes and fast food places trading here, so an even split of those diners gives a new restaurant one share in 5, or 2,148 customers a year. At 8 visits a year and a $25 average bill, that works out at $430,000 of gross revenue a year, or roughly $35,796 a month. Nothing is taken off for rent, food, wages, licences or fit-out: this is money through the till, not profit.
Gross revenue means money through the till. No costs are deducted anywhere in this model, which is exactly how the full tool reports it too.
How Many Restaurants Are in Parker?
That works out to about 3,159 residents per restaurant, compared to 1,162 across Texas. Parker has fewer places competing for each diner, so there is more room for a new restaurant than the wider Texas market.
City limits cut through real dining markets in a way county lines usually do not. If Parker sits inside a larger built-up area, plenty of its diners live just outside these boundaries and plenty of the competition does too, neither of which the count above can see.

Is Parker a Good Place to Open a Restaurant?
On the numbers alone Parker looks under-served: each restaurant here serves about 3,159 residents against 1,162 across Texas. An area-wide average cannot tell you whether one particular block works, though. It counts everyone who lives inside an administrative boundary, and it sees no passing traffic, no highway exit, and no downtown lunch crowd.
Who Eats Out in Parker: Target Audience Demographics
The revenue figures above start from everyone who lives in Parker and then narrow to whoever your concept actually serves. These are the numbers that decide how far that narrowing can go.
The age and sex sliders in the calculator run on the Census age-sex distribution for Parker, so narrowing to, say, 25 to 45 year olds changes the audience by the share those ages actually make up here rather than by a national average. That distribution comes from a different survey vintage than the headline population count, so it sets the share only: every headcount on this page is that share applied to the population figure above.
Traffic Passing Through Parker
Residents are only half the story. A restaurant also sells to people driving past it, and how many drive past depends entirely on what kind of road it sits on. These are the average daily vehicle counts across Parker.
| Road type | Vehicles per day | Texas average | Customers a day at 0.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ordinary streets and main roads | 3,517 | 1,441 | 28 |
Ordinary roads in Parker carry about 3,517 vehicles a day against 1,441 across Texas, so passing trade here is roughly 144% heavier than the Texas average. That is an area-wide figure: the road outside any one address can be many times busier or quieter.
The last column applies a single industry rule of thumb: on an average day a roadside business turns about 0.8% of passing vehicles into customers. Treat it as the roughest number on this page. Real capture swings enormously with which side of the road you are on, whether drivers can turn in easily, how visible the sign is, and whether those cars are commuting or out looking for lunch. Two units in the same building can differ by several times over.
Traffic counts come from proprietary Ticon and TrafficZoom data. For a capture estimate on one specific site rather than an area average, see the Ticon sales projection report.
Where This Data Comes From
Population, median age, household counts and the age-sex distribution come from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey. Restaurant, cafe and fast food counts come from OpenStreetMap contributors. Visit frequency and average bill are restaurant industry benchmarks, not measurements of this area, which is why they are yours to change in the calculator.
Average daily vehicle counts come from proprietary Ticon and TrafficZoom road data.
What is not here matters too. There is no drive-time trade area: an administrative boundary is treated as the market, and everyone inside it is counted equally regardless of how far they would really travel to eat. The traffic figures are area averages, not counts past any particular door. Nothing on this page accounts for rent, build-out, licences, payroll or food cost.

Does this estimate include passing traffic?
No. This page counts only the people who live in Parker, Texas, because an administrative boundary is all it has to work with. A site next to a highway exit or in a busy downtown will beat this estimate, and a site tucked behind a residential street will fall short of it. Map AI's address-level restaurant check adds road traffic and a 10-minute drive-time trade area around one specific location.
How do I open a restaurant in Parker, Texas?
Site selection comes first, because the lease is the hardest decision to undo. Start from how many diners live within reach, how many places already compete for them, and what an even share of that market would be worth. The numbers on this page cover the whole area; check a specific address before you sign anything.
What does it cost to open a restaurant in Parker, Texas?
Out of scope for this tool. Map AI estimates demand and competition, not build-out costs, commercial rent, licences or payroll, and it would rather say so than invent a number.
