Selling a cap in Modesto
Modesto sits in the middle of one of the most productive agricultural valleys in the world, with food processing and farming dominating the local economy. Summers are long and very hot and the winter valley fog is genuinely dense.
Agricultural and processing employment runs on strong seasonal cycles that move households at once. Housing is cheaper than the coastal cities, so people are often furnishing first homes.
The city is flat and driving is easy. Winter fog here can be severe enough to make driving genuinely difficult, so agree a fallback in those months.
Summer valley heat is severe and winter fog is dense. On anything stored outdoors, check plastics and rubber; on a collection day in winter, allow for genuinely poor visibility.
Modesto, in California, has around 218,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
