Other than Belk's, few shop there and everyone enters directly from the parking lot and gets v in and out. Covid putv the final nail in the coffin of malls. We all love the Heath Brook outdoor mall in mid-town Ocala, that is thriving! Love it! Check it out! |

Paddock at Ocala is not bad. It's clean, air conditioned, has mileage markers on the floor for walkers and some decent stores--Belk, Macy's and a clean, attractive food court and a Starbucks. Probably not a "shopper's paradise," but if you are (like me) someone who likes to get in, do her shopping and get out, it's pretty good! About a 30 minute drive from most of TV.

I'm surprised that malls even exist anymore. You can buy almost everything that the mall sells from Amazon, usually for less money and with free next day delivery. And, Amazon is more likely to have the size and color you want. This also applies to most non-mall stores, like Home Depot, Lowes, and Walgreens. I think that Amazon will eventually replace the retail store marketplace.

No, not closer than Orlando. We've been to Millenia Mall & didn't like it, lots of closed stores, few shoppers. We accidentally tried The Florida Mall, a bit further down the road & loved it! Despite the drive, we'd go there again just to have the variety of stores & number of shoppers that made us feel like we were in the right place. Address 8001 S Orange Blossom Trl, Orlando, FL 32809.

Because there are not enough people to support an inside mail.
[QUOTE=Stu from NYC;2235783]The theater is still open and is a nice one. Fairly small mall.
Do not understand given our temps there are no other indoor malls closer to us.[/QUOTE What stores do you have in mind? There are not enough people to support a nice mail around here. |

There are not enough people to support a nice mall in this area.
What kind of stores do you want in a mall. |

What is there to understand? Online shopping is wreaking havoc with the need for malls. Just sit in your a/c home and click away. 😊
