- Is Sacramento oversaturated for solar sales?
- No. 88.5% of comparable Sacramento homes still have no solar permit on record. Saturation is not evenly distributed, though: KnockGenius clusters the lowest-saturation blocks into 866 walkable pockets. The question that matters is which streets are unworked, not whether the city as a whole is.
- Do I need a permit to knock doors in Sacramento?
