Camp Pendleton borders Oceanside on the north, and the base's daytime population is around 100,000. Genentech, TE Connectivity and Hydranautics are listed among the city's top employers, along with Tri-City Medical Center and MiraCosta College, and warehouse and distribution is the largest category of industrial space. Business parks such as Rancho Del Oro and Ocean Ranch hold manufacturing and warehouse space that needs durable, cleanable floors.
About 59% of Oceanside homes are owner-occupied, and it is also a vacation-home market. Neighborhoods such as Rancho Del Oro, Ivey Ranch, Mission Mesa and Guajome have garages and patios that are our main residential work. Near the harbor, outdoor surfaces need finishes that hold up to sun and salt air.
