When we moved to Hemingway Publix seemed deserted. I agree that now it is crowded but be patient and more markets will start popping up.
Think about all the places you've lived over the years - was there always a grocery store just 3 minutes away? Was your favorite restaurant right down the street?
If it takes you two hours to find a parking spot and shop at Publix you must be circling for that perfect spot and really buying a lot of groceries.

lLiving in the NY suburbs, I drove 12 miles to work every day. From there, 3 miles to supermarket. Then 15 miles home. I could buy milk at the nearby CVS, but not bread or fresh fruit. The Big Box stores were 20 miles away, as well as Bloomingdales etc.
If you get up and go to Publix at 8 in the morning it is empty.
