Because the owner of The Villages is one of the smartest commercial real estate owners in the world and knows what rental rates are justified in his properties.
& I happen to know someone who was on the task force, that came up with the original concept for Staples & the Petco/PetSmart business model, back in the 1980's. I'm shocked PetSense lasted as long as it did, as that location never met the demographic or location parameters for that sort of store.
