By national ratios Charleston supports about 50 full-time smart home installer pros — enough for a real local trade with specialists, not just generalists. That is smaller than most United States cities we cover. Ownership is split — 56 % owner-occupied — so a typical week mixes homeowners with landlords and property managers who buy in volume. The housing stock is close to the national average in age, so demand tracks the national pattern for this trade.
