Predicting Fitness Studio Locations

As vaccines roll out and consumer confidence grows, we expect to see a significant return to in-person class fitness. To that end, we wanted to study which data is predictive of existing fitness studios like SoulCycle and Crossfit. To do so, we collected Census data within a 10-minute drive from thousands of points in NYC and regressed it against the number of studio fitness locations. Of the 50+ variables studied on population, occupation, education, and income, we found that the number of $200k+ income households had the strongest correlation to number of fitness studio classes, with an r^2 of 0.66.
