Built for Wilmington personal trainers
New Castle County had 113 employer fitness centers in 2023, 19.4 per 100,000 residents, well above the national metro median of 11.3. Kent County had 26 and Sussex County 31, so two thirds of Delaware's count in the class is in this one county. Half were under five staff, and 21 had twenty or more. The county also sits inside the Philadelphia metro, which counted 1,007 fitness centers, and that wider market sets client expectations: people used to booking a class from their phone expect to book a trainer the same way.
New Castle County's 19.4 fitness centers per 100,000 residents compares with 13.7 in Kent County and 11.7 in Sussex County. One employer fitness center for every 5,200 or so residents is a crowded field, and in a crowded field the trainer who holds a client's regular slot week after week is the one who keeps them. A trainer working Wilmington, Newark and Middletown can list each location separately, so a client near the University of Delaware sees campus-area slots and a Middletown client sees theirs.
New Castle County had 588,093 residents in July 2024 against a 2020 base of 570,721, a change of +3.0 percent, so a trainer here is selling into a growing county.
Within Delaware, New Castle County ranks 1st of 3 counties with 20,000 or more residents for fitness centers per 100,000 people, at 19.4; Kent County is at 13.7 and Sussex County is at 11.7.
The figures on this page are for New Castle County, DE, the county that contains the city of Wilmington, because County Business Patterns publishes counties as well as metros and the county is the closer fit here. Independent trainers' own businesses fall in a second Census class, all other personal services (NAICS 812990), which had 43 establishments in New Castle County. 39 of its 43 had fewer than five employees.
By size, 56 had fewer than five employees, 18 had five to nine, 18 had ten to nineteen, 11 had twenty to forty-nine, 5 had fifty to ninety-nine, 4 had a hundred to 249 and the other 1 had 250 or more.
Email reminders go out ahead of each session, at 24 hours and 2 hours by default, and you can change the timing. After a session BookAndGo can send a review request, so happy clients leave a review while the workout is fresh.
