Same thing happening here.. we live in an area where there’s 4 villages within a 6mile stretch and there’s 6 dollar stores.. I grew up in the eastern most village of this area and it has a a large older Italian population. Everyone thought it would be great but the prices are the same or more money than Walmart that’s 5 miles away.

But the most common thing around here is pizza shops. within this 4 village area, we have about 13 pizza places.. Which is down from 18 when I was in high school. Back then in my village of 2k people, there were 7 pizza places alone and each one had their own unique taste and style. Great time to be a kid
