Frequently Asked Questions
How strong is the Clearwater economy for small business owners?

The city’s year-round demand from residents and seasonal tourists creates a stable customer base, especially for companies offering food, hospitality, home services, and retail.
How does Clearwater’s tourism industry impact local businesses?
Tourism is one of Clearwater’s biggest economic engines, drawing millions of visitors to Clearwater Beach each year.
