Towns near Jesup compared

4 of the 6 nearest places get more painting days, the most in Brunswick (122 a year, 41 miles southeast). A gap like that between towns is usually elevation, a coast or a lake, which is why a painter from a few towns over can be on a different schedule. Hinesville is read from the same station as Jesup, so its numbers match; the real difference is the distance from that station.
