There is.
Given a choice build where the population/customer base is higher.
Some day another major chain will invest in a nearby, non Villages owned out parcel. For example a Kroger Super Store or a Wegmans would make a dent in the Publix stronghold.
It hasn't happened in the last 16 years so likely will not happen.
