Trampolines: Provo, UT vs. Conroe, TX
Is Provo really the trampoline capital of the United States? We checked.
At Vexcel, we have a lot of meetings about data. Imagery. Property details. Roof types. Swimming pools. AI models. And in one of those meetings, someone brought up a fact (or was it a rumor?): Provo, Utah has more trampolines per household than anywhere else in the U.S.
We couldn’t let that bounce by unchecked. We turned to our high-resolution aerial imagery and AI-powered feature extraction to see if Provo really lives up to its springy reputation.
But every good data story needs a control group. So we picked another city of similar size: Conroe, Texas. Two cities. Two datasets. One question: Which one has more backyard trampolines?
Provo vs. Conroe: Battle of the Backyard Trampolines
Provo, UT
- Population: 113,000
- Properties analyzed: 21,049
- Trampolines detected: 2,014
- Bounce rate: 9.6% of properties with trampolines
Conroe, TX
- Population: 109,000
- Properties analyzed: 37,446
- Trampolines detected: 1,494
- Bounce rate: 4.0% of properties with trampolines
The Winner: Provo jumped ahead in this backyard battle, more than doubling Conroe’s trampoline density. With an average family size of 3.41 (compared to national average of 1.94), it makes sense.
How We Did It
To answer this backyard mystery, we used:
- Our latest high-resolution ortho imagery
- Our AI-powered feature extracts of trampolines
- Official city boundary data for Provo and Conroe
- Vexcel’s APIs to tally trampoline counts per property within city boundaries
This kind of feature extraction is just one example of how AI combined with accurate imagery can turn pixels into property insights, whether you’re spotting trampolines, mapping pools, or analyzing attributes for insurance, assessment, or GIS workflows.
