What to do about it
If you run a restaurant, café, coffee shop, bakery or food truck, the numbers are plain: among the 20 we read in each of those trades, not one had answered a recent review. Start with your newest reviews, good and bad, and answer each one in a few sentences that sound like you.
If you run a nail salon, the owners named above answered 10 of their last 10, and that is the standard you are sitting beside. In any trade, open your listing, count how many of your last 10 reviews carry a reply, and compare that with 66%, the benchmark measured here. That count is the same measure behind every reply figure above. Of everything in that exchange, the reply is the only part you write.

Method
Every figure comes from public Google listings — the businesses and owner replies any customer can see — read on 2026-09-24. Counts describe the businesses someone searching in Port Hueneme, CA is shown, which is the competitive set a customer actually chooses from, not a register of businesses inside the city limits. A business is named only where we read at least eight of its recent reviews, and only the ones answering the most are named; the rest of a market appears as a distribution with its denominator. Chains are counted but never named. Nothing is ranked on star rating. Port Hueneme, CA has a population of 21,691 and a median household income of $76,655 (US Census) — context for the town, not a predictor of its reviews.
