I know of at least one store owner who leases in TV because of the school. They have young children and they can attend the schools here if their family runs a buisness out of TV.

They in particular had a hugh increase in the business when they opened the TV shop.

So I have to believe it is the type of merchant that makes it or not. Specialty shops are always at risk to failure regardless of the location. In TV some shops think they can charge way more than the market can bear and base their business plan on higher prices that can not always be charged. How many dog/cat toys can you buy per week. Most will buy pet food from Sams or other discount type businesses or grocery stores of which there are many options.
