They look at population and median income. The reason he gave for no Costco in Destin/Pensacola area - seasonal population. I don’t know the reasons for no Costco in TV but I suspect seasonal population may be a factor.
Since I live in Costco country I can’t say I’ve ever seen or shopped at a Sam’s Club, but isn’t it the same thing?

Hopefully we will have one here soon. When you move you will quickly realize that Sam's is a very disappointing imitation of Costco. We find ourselves in Orlando at Costco much more than we would like.
After moving from Utah where we had 4 Costco warehouses within a 10 mile radius, we really miss our Costcos. Hopefully they will realize the potential of a store here.
