Default High End Chain Restaurant

My daughter works for a high-end developer. I asked her why we couldn't get a Crate and Barrel in our area, and her response was interesting. She said when high end chain restaurants or retailers are requested to develop in an area they do very extensive research. In order to get PF Chang for example, they had to do multiple fly-overs the area scoping out the housing and retail establishments. One of the things they look at is the length of the residential driveways....the longer the driveway, the more expensive the home. If that really is important criteria, The Villages will not qualify for high end restaurants!
