Understanding the New Franklin Area Market

New Franklin is a growing, predominantly residential community in southern Summit County. According to the City of New Franklin and recent planning documents, the city has roughly 14,000 residents, up from about 13,800 a decade ago—an increase of around 1–2%, reflecting steady, slow-growth driven by people seeking lake access and a quieter lifestyle near Akron. The city covers about 26 square miles, which means a relatively low residential density of roughly 540 residents per square mile, consistent with its semi-rural and lakeside character and making roadside visibility for New Franklin billboards particularly strong.

Key regional context:

  • Summit County has about 537,000 residents, making it one of Ohio’s 5 most-populous counties. The median age is around 41 years, compared with roughly 39 statewide, and the homeownership rate is consistently above 65%, with some southern suburbs, including the New Franklin area, exceeding 70%. This points to a high share of stable, established households who are more likely to invest in home improvements, vehicles, and local services that can be promoted efficiently with billboard advertising near New Franklin.
  • The Akron metropolitan area (Akron MSA) totals roughly 700,000 residents, with an estimated 280,000–300,000 households. Median household income across the metro is in the low- to mid-$60,000s, giving advertisers near New Franklin access to a broad middle-income consumer base.
  • New Franklin’s economy is strongly tied to nearby employment centers:
    • Downtown Akron (about 8–10 miles away)
    • Industrial and distribution hubs near I-77 and US-224
    • Retail and office clusters in Green and North Canton
    • Major healthcare employers such as Summa Health and Akron General in and around Akron

This geography means a large portion of New Franklin residents commute through high-traffic corridors where our digital boards near Akron and North Canton are located. Regional transportation studies estimate that over 80% of employed residents in southern Summit County commute by car alone, with only a small share using carpooling or transit—translating into heavy daily vehicle flow and consistent exposure for New Franklin billboards placed along these roadways.

According to Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT)

  • I-77 between Akron and Canton:
    • Frequently carries 70,000–90,000 vehicles per day on many segments near Green and the Akron–Canton Airport, with some stretches exceeding 95,000 AADT (annual average daily traffic).
  • US-224 on Akron’s south side:
    • Commonly sees 20,000–30,000 vehicles per day, depending on the segment, serving cross-county commuters and retail trips.
  • Manchester Road (SR 93) north of New Franklin:
    • Often records 12,000–15,000 vehicles per day, funneling local traffic from New Franklin and Portage Lakes into Akron.

For advertisers, this creates a powerful opportunity: speak to residents of the New Franklin area multiple times per week as they drive to work, shop in Akron or North Canton, or head to Portage Lakes for recreation. With average drivers in the Akron region logging around 12,000–13,000 miles per year, your message is repeatedly in front of the same high-intent local audience, not just pass-through travelers. Carefully planned billboard rental near New Franklin along these corridors can become a core pillar of your local marketing mix.

Who You Can Reach Near New Franklin

We can use regional and county data to understand who you’ll likely reach when you advertise near New Franklin with digital billboards:

Demographics and households

  • New Franklin’s population skews slightly older than Ohio overall, with a large share of adults in the 35–64 age range and a notable population of retirees. In nearby Portage Lakes ZIP codes, more than 25–30% of residents are 55+, signaling strong demand for healthcare, financial services, and home maintenance.
  • Summit County’s median household income is in the mid-$60,000s, and a substantial portion of households fall into the $50,000–$100,000 range. In southern suburbs such as Green and parts of New Franklin’s trade area, median incomes frequently reach $75,000–$85,000, providing strong purchasing power for home services, autos, healthcare, and discretionary spending that can be effectively targeted via billboards near New Franklin on daily commute routes.
  • Housing and household composition in the greater Akron area include:
    • A high share of owner-occupied single-family homes, often 65–75% of occupied units in suburban communities like New Franklin, Green, and North Canton.
    • A strong base of married-couple households with children, especially in school-oriented suburbs; in several nearby districts, families with children under 18 make up 30–35% of households.
    • A significant share of empty nesters and retirees, attracted to lakeside and rural-style settings. In lake-adjacent areas, households without children at home often make up 60%+ of all households, but with high home equity and discretionary income.

Commuter and travel patterns

  • Many New Franklin residents commute north toward Akron or south toward the Canton area, often via:
    • I-77
    • State Route 93
    • Manchester Road (SR 93 northbound into Akron)
    • US-224 for east–west travel
  • The average commute time in the Akron region is roughly 22–24 minutes, and for many New Franklin-area workers, commutes fall in the 20–35 minute range. That usually means crossing multiple municipalities—ideal for repeated billboard exposures along each leg of the trip and for advertisers looking for consistent billboard advertising near New Franklin.
  • More than 85% of workers in Summit and Stark counties commute by private vehicle, and a majority travel during the 6–9 a.m. and 3–7 p.m. peaks. Those windows reliably generate the heaviest digital billboard impressions.
  • Portage Lakes and local marinas draw heavy weekend and evening recreational traffic, especially from late spring through early fall. State park usage statistics show that Portage Lakes State Park thousands of vehicles entering the area, significantly boosting exposure for evening and weekend billboard schedules.

Local culture and affinities

New Franklin area residents strongly identify with:

  • Outdoor and lake life – boating, fishing, kayaking, and lakeside dining around Portage Lakes State Park $1.4–$1.6 billion in annual visitor spending, and water-based recreation in the Portage Lakes area is a notable contributor, driving demand for restaurants, rental properties, marinas, and events.
  • High school sports – especially Manchester Local Schools Green Local Schools, Coventry Local Schools, and Norton City Schools, where Friday night football and basketball seasons routinely bring out hundreds to a few thousand spectators per game. Tapping into that identity with “proud supporter” messaging can generate strong local goodwill.
  • Regional ties to Akron for major amenities:
    • Entertainment and dining in downtown Akron
    • Akron RubberDucks games at Canal Park, which typically draw 4,000–6,000 fans per home game across a 60–70 game home schedule.
    • Arts and culture through the Akron Civic Theatre and local venues; the Civic hosts 100+ events per year, from concerts and comedy to community events, attracting audiences from across Summit and Stark counties.

These patterns and preferences should directly influence your creative, your scheduling, and your location strategy for digital billboards serving the New Franklin area.

Why Use Digital Billboards Near New Franklin Instead of Only Local Media

The New Franklin area is served by a mix of regional media outlets:

  • Akron Beacon Journal (print + digital)
  • Regional TV news from Akron/Canton and Cleveland stations such as News 5 Cleveland (WEWS), WKYC, and Fox 8
  • Local radio covering Summit and Stark counties, including talk, news, and sports stations with monthly cumulative audiences often reaching 100,000–300,000 listeners per major station.

Digital billboards near New Franklin complement these channels by delivering:

  • High-frequency, unavoidable impressions along primary commuting and shopping routes. Because you can’t scroll past or “mute” a billboard, out-of-home (OOH) ads consistently post strong awareness numbers; national OOH research has found that roughly 70–80% of drivers notice roadside billboards in a typical month, and close to 50% specifically recall digital boards.
  • Visual storytelling with large-format imagery that’s ideal for branding. Studies from OOH industry groups show that adding digital billboards to a media mix can lift brand awareness by 20–40% and web traffic by up to 30% when creatives and landing pages are aligned.
  • Geographic precision—our boards in Akron and North Canton can be selected to match key travel paths used by New Franklin area residents, rather than buying broad TV or regional print that reaches large numbers of out-of-market viewers. This allows you to concentrate billboard advertising near New Franklin where it matters most.

ODOT’s traffic counts of tens of thousands of vehicles per day on routes like I-77 and US-224 translate into hundreds of thousands of weekly impressions per billboard face, especially during peak travel months. For example, a segment averaging 80,000 vehicles per day yields approximately 560,000 weekly vehicle impressions; assuming 1.2–1.5 occupants per vehicle, that can equate to 670,000–840,000 weekly audience impressions.

Combined with Blip’s ability to manage budgets by daypart and location, this gives smaller advertisers the same geographic sophistication that larger brands use throughout the Akron–Canton corridor, but with entry budgets as low as a few dollars per day for billboard rental near New Franklin and its surrounding communities.

Choosing the Best Locations to Reach the New Franklin Area

Our six digital billboards serving the New Franklin area are positioned in Akron and North Canton, within about 10–15 miles of New Franklin. When you plan your campaign, think in terms of where New Franklin residents are headed to make sure your billboards near New Franklin follow real-world driving patterns:

1. Toward Akron (northbound commuters and shoppers)

  • Target boards on major routes leading into south and central Akron, where thousands of New Franklin residents work or shop. Downtown Akron alone supports tens of thousands of jobs and attracts millions of visits per year for work, entertainment, and events.
  • Focus on times when New Franklin residents are most likely to be on the road:
    • Weekday mornings (6–9 a.m.) heading toward work, when regional counts show 30–40% of daily traffic concentrated in just a few hours.
    • Late afternoons and early evenings (3–7 p.m.) heading home or running errands; PM peaks often match or slightly exceed AM volumes, particularly on Fridays and before holidays.

2. Toward North Canton and the Canton area (southbound/eastbound trips)

  • Many residents travel toward Belden Village, the Akron–Canton Airport area, and Canton’s shopping and employment centers.
  • The Akron–Canton Airport area alone sees hundreds of thousands of passengers annually, along with substantial daily employee and visitor traffic.
  • Billboards in North Canton are positioned to intercept:
    • Airport-related traffic
    • Retail trips to major shopping areas like Belden Village Mall, which can draw tens of thousands of shoppers per week, especially during peak retail seasons
    • Commuters working in Stark County but living near New Franklin; Stark County has over 180,000 employed residents, many of whom travel along the I‑77 corridor.

3. Local and regional recreation patterns

Portage Lakes–related traffic has distinct peaks:

  • Friday afternoons and evenings – people heading to the lakes after work. On warm-weather Fridays, traffic volumes on key access roads can be 10–20% higher than midweek averages.
  • Weekend mornings and evenings (especially in summer) – boating, fishing, and lakeside dining. Marina owners report full or near-full slip occupancy on peak weekends, and local bars and restaurants often experience 50–100% higher sales compared with off-season weekends.
  • Holiday weekends (Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day) see especially heavy volumes, with state park and marina usage sometimes doubling typical weekend levels.

When you choose time windows for your Blip campaign, consider heavier weekend and evening coverage during the warm months to reach residents and visitors on their way to and from the lakes, and lean more on weekday commuter windows during the colder months when recreation traffic dips. Matching these rhythms with strategic billboard advertising near New Franklin helps you stay visible when local demand is highest.

Crafting High-Impact Creative for the New Franklin Area

Because the New Franklin area has a strong identity around lakes, community, and a slower pace of life, your billboard creative should reflect that.

1. Visual style

  • Use large, bold imagery that resonates locally:
    • Lakes, boats, docks, wooded backyards, and sunsets that evoke Portage Lakes life.
    • Local sports themes (e.g., Friday-night-lights vibe) for campaigns targeting families.
  • Keep text minimal: 6–8 words or less, plus your logo and a simple call to action. Eye-tracking studies show that drivers typically have 2–3 seconds to process a billboard message at highway speeds of 55–70 mph, and designs with fewer than 7 words score significantly higher on recall.
  • Use high-contrast colors that remain legible in bright daylight and at night. Dark backgrounds with light text or vice versa work well; contrast ratios of 4.5:1 or higher are recommended for optimal readability.

2. Messaging angles that resonate

For the New Franklin area, consider:

  • “Local and trustworthy” positioning
    • “Trusted by New Franklin area families since 1995”
    • “Serving the New Franklin area and Portage Lakes”
      Messages that reference specific neighborhoods or landmarks often see double-digit lifts in recall because residents feel personally addressed, especially when those messages appear on billboards near New Franklin that they pass every day.
  • Convenience and time-saving benefits
    • “Save time on your Akron commute—schedule online today”
    • “Fast same-day service near New Franklin”
      Since the average local commuter spends 4–5 hours per week on the road, emphasizing convenience and easy scheduling connects with real daily frustrations.
  • Lifestyle and home-improvement themes
    • “Make your lake home summer-ready” (for contractors, landscapers, deck builders)
    • “Upgrade your backyard before boating season”
      Home improvement and garden sectors typically see spending spikes of 20–40% in spring and early summer in northern climates like Ohio.
  • Community support
    • “Proud supporter of New Franklin area schools”
    • Tie-ins to local events, high school sports, or charity drives.
      Community-anchored campaigns consistently rate higher on favorability; surveys often show that 60–70% of residents have a more positive impression of brands that visibly support local schools or youth sports.

3. Calls to action that work on the road

Because your audience is driving, focus on:

  • Direct web or short URL (e.g., “SmithPlumbing.com”)
  • Simple search prompts (“Search ‘New Franklin roof repair’”)
  • Short phone numbers or vanity numbers, if memorable.

Avoid cluttered designs—too many offers or phone numbers reduce recall. Industry testing shows that reducing a digital billboard from 3+ offers to just 1 can increase unaided recall by 20–30%. Aim for a viewer being able to “get it” in 2–3 seconds at highway speeds.

Timing Your Campaign Around Local Seasonality

The New Franklin area has clear seasonal patterns that should shape your Blip scheduling:

Spring (March–May)

  • Home improvement spending increases as weather improves; in northern states, home and garden retailers often see 25–35% of their annual sales during this window.
  • Ideal for:
    • Contractors, roofers, landscapers, painters
    • Garden centers and outdoor furniture retailers
  • Strategy:
    • Increase impressions on weekday evenings and weekends as homeowners tackle after-work projects.
    • Use creative that references “spring projects,” “pre-summer tune-ups,” and “ready for boating season,” aligning with the ramp-up of Portage Lakes activity and encouraging residents to respond to nearby billboard advertising near New Franklin.

Summer (June–August)

  • Portage Lakes area is at peak traffic—boats on the water, lakefront bars and restaurants busy, families out late. Summit County tourism data show that June–August can account for 40–45% of annual visitor activity.
  • Ideal for:
    • Restaurants, bars, ice cream shops
    • Marinas, boat repair, outdoor recreation businesses
    • Event-based marketing (festivals, live music, fireworks)
  • Strategy:
    • Emphasize evening and weekend dayparts, when roads leading to lakes and patios are most active.
    • Rotate creative frequently with Blip to promote specific events, specials, or weather-driven calls (“Perfect night for patio dining”). Flexible buyers can increase spend during forecasted stretches of 75°F+ and sunny days, when foot traffic surges.

Fall (September–November)

  • Back-to-school, high school sports, and pre-winter prep drive strong consumer activity. Auto and HVAC services frequently see service volume increases of 15–25% in early fall as residents prepare for winter.
  • Ideal for:
    • Auto service (tires, brakes, winterization)
    • HVAC companies and home maintenance services
    • Retailers promoting back-to-school and fall decor
  • Strategy:
    • Target weekday commuter windows and Friday evenings (sports fans heading to games).
    • Mention “before winter,” “game day,” or “back-to-school” cues to align with life events that are already top of mind.

Winter (December–February)

  • Holiday shopping and then a slower, indoor-focused period. Retailers may do 20–30% of annual revenue in November–December alone, followed by quieter January–February.
  • Ideal for:
    • Retail, holiday promotions, local experiences (shows, events, dining)
    • Healthcare, dental, and financial services (New Year’s resolutions, insurance year resets)
  • Strategy:
    • Use bright, high-contrast designs to cut through early darkness and winter weather; in Northeast Ohio, sunset can be as early as 5 p.m. in December.
    • Shift budgets with Blip to concentrate around key retail dates (Black Friday, local holiday events) and the start of the new year, when interest in fitness, health, and financial planning historically spikes.

Blip’s flexibility lets you adjust spend week by week or even day by day as weather, events, and business conditions change—critical in a four-season market like the New Franklin area, where the right timing can dramatically improve returns from billboards near New Franklin.

Matching Your Business Type to New Franklin Area Travel Patterns

Different industries can take advantage of New Franklin area travel flows in distinct ways:

Local service businesses (home services, healthcare, professional services)

  • Audience: Residents of the New Franklin area who work or shop in Akron or North Canton. In ZIP codes adjoining New Franklin and Portage Lakes, owner-occupied homes often make up 70% or more of the housing stock, meaning a large base of long-term residents who repeatedly see your message.
  • Strategy:
    • Use boards on their commuting paths with messages focused on home, family, and trust.
    • Emphasize local relevance (“Serving families near New Franklin and Portage Lakes”).
    • Reinforce your presence during peak decision times; for many services, calls and form fills often peak between 7–9 p.m., shortly after commuters have seen your message on the drive home on New Franklin billboards they regularly pass.

Retail and restaurants

  • Audience: Shoppers heading to Akron, Green, North Canton, or local dining around Portage Lakes.
  • Strategy:
    • Highlight distance and convenience (“5 minutes off I‑77 at Exit ___”). Wayfinding messages can lift visit intent by 10–20%, particularly for new or lesser-known locations.
    • Use time-sensitive offers (daily specials, happy hours, events) and rotate them via Blip; daily creative swaps let you match-board messaging to internal promotions without large production costs.
    • Focus more impressions on evenings and weekends, when restaurant and retail sales volumes are often 30–50% higher than weekday daytime averages.

Tourism, recreation, and events

  • Audience: Locals and visitors heading toward or from Portage Lakes, Akron events, or airport travel.
  • Strategy:
    • Tie your creative to local happenings promoted by Visit Akron–Summit. Summit County hosts hundreds of festivals, concerts, and sporting events annually, which can dramatically boost traffic along key corridors.
    • Run heavier schedules around major events, festivals, and summer weekends. For example, fireworks shows and large lake events can temporarily increase area traffic volumes by 20–50%.
    • Use simple date-based or countdown messaging (“Concert this Saturday,” “Opens June 1”), which has been shown to improve event attendance when combined with social and email campaigns.

Recruiting and employer branding

  • Audience: Commuters traveling between Akron, Canton, and the New Franklin area. In Summit and Stark counties combined, there are well over 400,000 employed residents, many of whom drive I‑77 daily.
  • Strategy:
    • Use commute routes with strong “Work close to home” or “Now hiring near New Franklin” messages to capture attention from residents who may be driving 20–30 minutes each way.
    • Schedule during weekday rush hours to catch job seekers and passive candidates. Campaigns emphasizing pay rates, sign-on bonuses, or flexible schedules can improve applicant volume by 15–25% versus generic “Now Hiring” messages, especially when those messages are consistently visible on billboards near New Franklin.

Integrating Billboards with Your Other New Franklin Area Marketing

Digital billboards serving the New Franklin area work best as part of an integrated local strategy:

1. Align your message across platforms

  • Use the same headline, color scheme, and key visual on:
    • Billboards
    • Your website landing page
    • Social media ads targeting Summit and Stark counties
  • Multi-channel campaigns where OOH matches digital creative can produce 20–30% higher ad recall and 10–20% higher response rates compared with fragmented messaging.

2. Use geo-targeted digital ads

  • Target users who:
    • Live near New Franklin and Portage Lakes
    • Frequently travel along I-77 or into Akron/North Canton
  • When those users see your billboard message that matches what they see online, the combined impact increases brand trust and response rates. Many local businesses report that blending modest billboard budgets with search and social ads reduces cost per lead by 10–25%.

3. Leverage local news and community partners

  • Consider coordinating messaging with local coverage or sponsorships:
    • Akron Beacon Journal features or digital campaigns
    • Sponsorships with local schools, youth sports, or charities such as booster clubs for Manchester Local Schools or Coventry schools
    • Community organizations and chambers of commerce in Akron and nearby suburbs
      • Greater Akron Chamber
  • When your name appears both on local news sites and on the boards they drive by, you build stronger credibility. Surveys in many markets show that over 60% of residents view advertisers more favorably when they see them associated with local news or community causes.

4. Track response with simple, local-focused offers

  • Use trackable URLs, promo codes, or dedicated phone numbers for billboard campaigns:
    • Example: “Visit SmithPlumbing.com/Franklin for 10% off”
  • Ask new customers how they heard about you and log “billboard” responses over the campaign period to correlate spikes with your Blip schedule. Even basic tracking systems can reveal which month, message, or board produced the strongest lift in calls or web visits.
  • Compare sales or lead volume during billboard periods vs. similar prior periods (same month last year) to account for seasonality, and look for changes of 10% or more, which usually signal meaningful impact rather than random fluctuation.

Measuring and Optimizing Your New Franklin Area Campaign

To get the most from your budget, treat your New Franklin area campaign as an ongoing test-and-improve process:

1. Start with a defined hypothesis

For example:

  • “Running during weekday rush hours on Akron-facing boards will increase web traffic from the 44319 and adjacent ZIP codes by 20%.”
  • “Highlighting ‘Portage Lakes’ in the headline will drive more direct search volume for our brand name compared with a generic headline.”

2. Choose key metrics

Depending on your business, track:

  • Website analytics:
    • Sessions from Summit and Stark counties
    • Direct and branded search traffic
    • Landing page conversions (form fills, quote requests, bookings)
    • Look for week-over-week or month-over-month shifts of 10–30% during heavy billboard weeks.
  • Call volume:
    • Total calls and new customer calls during the campaign window
    • Call duration and conversion to appointments; even a 5–10% increase in conversion from calls to jobs can significantly improve ROI.
  • Store traffic and sales:
    • Compare sales during billboard weeks vs. prior periods, adjusting for seasonality.
    • Retailers often see 3–15% lifts in store traffic during strong OOH campaigns, especially when combined with in-store signage and offers.

3. Test creative variations

Blip makes it easy to:

  • Upload multiple creatives and see which performs better in terms of response (calls, clicks, redemptions).
  • Rotate messages (e.g., “Portage Lakes” vs. “New Franklin area”) to see which resonates more; even small wording changes can yield 10–20% differences in response.
  • Introduce seasonal variants (spring, summer, fall, winter) while maintaining your core branding. Consistent logos and colors with seasonal messaging tend to balance brand-building and short-term response.

4. Adjust scheduling and locations over time

Using Blip’s controls, you can:

  • Shift more budget to:
    • The boards that align with your best-performing ZIP codes (for example, boards closest to 44319, 44312, or North Canton ZIPs).
    • Dayparts that correlate with higher response; if evening impressions consistently outperform mornings by 20%+ on cost per lead, reallocate accordingly.
  • Pull back during lower-response times and reinvest when events, weather, or seasons give you a better return. This kind of tuning over 2–3 campaign cycles typically leads to measurable improvements in efficiency for billboard rental near New Franklin.

Putting It All Together: A Sample Strategy for the New Franklin Area

To illustrate how these concepts come together, here’s a sample 3‑month strategy for a hypothetical local home services company serving the New Franklin area:

  1. Month 1 – Awareness & Testing

    • Locations: Mix of Akron and North Canton boards that intercept I‑77 and US-224 traffic, reaching corridors with 50,000–90,000 vehicles per day.
    • Schedule:
      • Weekday 7–9 a.m. and 4–7 p.m. commuter windows to capture the 60–70% of daily traffic that occurs during peak times.
    • Creative:
      • Version A: “Trusted by New Franklin area homeowners” + service icons.
      • Version B: “Make your Portage Lakes home ready for summer.”
    • Tracking: New client inquiries and website traffic from ZIP codes surrounding New Franklin and Portage Lakes; set a target of at least a 15–20% increase in local web sessions vs. pre-campaign baseline.
  2. Month 2 – Focused Push

    • Double impressions on the top-performing boards from Month 1, concentrating on those with the highest traffic counts and strongest response (e.g., boards near I‑77 interchanges).
    • Drop the weaker creative variant and refine the stronger one with clearer call to action (“Call today” or “Book online in 60 seconds”).
    • Introduce a limited-time offer (“Book by June 30 and save 10%”) with a unique landing page URL to measure conversions; aim for a conversion-rate lift of 10–25% over Month 1.
  3. Month 3 – Seasonal & Weekend Emphasis

    • Shift a larger share of impressions to weekends and evenings, aligning with peak lake traffic and home-project time.
    • Refresh creative with stronger summer visuals and simple action: “Call today, enjoy this weekend.”
    • Compare call volume and booked jobs during this month to Month 1; look for increases of 20% or more in inquiries from key ZIP codes as validation that the schedule and creative are dialed in.

By reviewing metrics monthly and making small adjustments, you can steadily improve your cost per lead and brand recognition in the New Franklin area while making the most of billboards near New Franklin that your audience sees every day.


By understanding how residents of the New Franklin area live, commute, and spend their free time—and by using Blip’s flexible controls for location, timing, and creative rotation—we can build digital billboard campaigns that reach the right people at the right moments. The combination of high-traffic corridors near Akron and North Canton, strong community identity around Portage Lakes, and a stable, family-oriented population of roughly 14,000 locals within a metro of 700,000 makes this one of the most attractive micro-markets in northeast Ohio for smart, data-informed billboard advertising. When you pair that insight with strategically placed New Franklin billboards and adjustable billboard rental near New Franklin, you create a powerful engine for sustained local growth.
