Commercial Growth follows Residential growth. Stores and restaurants that are looking to expand count rooftops (i.e., population) before choosing a location. The residential growth that will come along with the largest annexation in Stanislaus County history (Zacharias Ranch) along with the build out of Villages of Patterson and Baldwin Ranch will give all your favorite shops and restaurants a lot of rooftops to count.
Shops and restaurants also like traffic counts. Cal Trans measures traffic volume on their website (dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/census/traffic-volumes) Cal Trans show the 2021 Average Traffic Count of Highway 5 / Sperry at 57,000. This gives Patterson a potential of 57,000 car or truck loads of customers daily.
