Now that's certainly interesting. I wonder how the Spanish word became the more common term for it over "laundromat."

lavandaria isn't more common than laundromat over all but it's definitely the second most common term with washateria not really even in the running in my area, it's just not used. we have a fairly large latin/hispanic population in GA so lavandaria is to be expected.
