Thank you so much ! That’s exactly right it’s not the wages paid it’s the profits kept ! Almost every state has higher minimum wages and their prices are less. Look how expensive Public is ! Kroger’s would mop the floor here!
This is a unique environment also as all the local business pay much higher rent and royalties to the Morse family/ Villages. Some how they’ve managed to price gouge. As the place gets larger non of the operating costs go down in fact the amenity bill is now around 210-230 a month.
