There's one Publix south of 44 (Magnolia Plaza), but also the Grand Traverse plaza on 44 is a very short golf cart trip or car ride for most of those south of 44. I certainly don't feel like there's a Publix shortage for the current size of the population in the area. So basically 2 Publix locations serving a much smaller area than the rest of TV combined.
Sawgrass is not a town square. It is an area with a few restaurants and outdoor seating area. They will be building a fourth square in Eastwood over the next year or so.
