ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. At December 31, 2024, we operated 162 funeral homes in 26 states and 31 cemeteries in 11 states. We own the real property and buildings for 140 of our funeral homes and lease 22 facilities. We own 30 cemeteries and operate one cemetery under a long-term contract with a municipality, which we refer to as a managed property. We operate 18 funeral homes in combination with cemeteries as these locations are physically located on the same property or in very close proximity and are under the same leadership. The 31 cemeteries that we operate have developed cemetery property of approximately 142,000 and 162,000 units available-for-sale at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, we own approximately 496 acres that are available for future development or sale. We anticipate having a sufficient inventory of lots to maintain our property sales for the foreseeable future. Our support center is located in Houston, Texas, where we lease approximately 48,000 square feet of office space. 21 The following table sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2024, regarding our properties used by the funeral home segment and by the cemetery segment identified by state: Number of Funeral Homes Number of Cemeteries State Owned Leased (1) Owned Managed California 22 6 7 — Connecticut 7 2 — — Florida 11 5 5 — Georgia 3 — — — Idaho 4 1 3 — Illinois 2 — 1 — Kansas 2 — — — Kentucky 5 1 — — Louisiana 3 1 1 — Massachusetts 7 — — — Michigan 2 — — — Montana 2 1 1 — Nevada 2 — 2 1 New Jersey 1 1 — — New Mexico 1 — — — New York 10 1 — — North Carolina 11 1 2 — Ohio 4 — — — Oklahoma 5 — 2 — Pennsylvania 2 — — — Rhode Island 4 — — — Tennessee 4 — — — Texas 15 1 5 — Virginia 8 1 1 — Washington 2 — — — Wisconsin 1 — — — Total 140 22 30 1 (1) The leases, with respect to these funeral homes, generally have remaining terms ranging from one to twenty years, and generally, we have the right to renew past the initial terms and have a right of first refusal on any proposed sale of the property where these funeral homes are located.
