The seasonal nature here goes into the decision process.

But not so sure the growth rate in the new areas is recognized. And a lot of workers families do business near their jobs.

Then you see multiple hardware stores, pharmacies, fast food, car washes adjacent to or across from each other in established areas.

Seems some opportunity is being missed delaying following the growth.
