Interesting article though it seems to only talk about a few counties in rural CA with a brief mention of some of the shoppers in a more urban area. I am not even sure where these shoppers were though.

I lived near Stanford University from 1984-1986 and then in the wine country of Northern CA from late 1991 through 1996. Often got into San Francisco once a month or so.
