I live in the most heavily Wal-Mart saturated area in the world. There are 12 Wal-Marts within a 10 mile radius of my house. That doesn't include Sam's Club (4) or Neighborhood Markets (4).
The result of that seems to be that every other business around here is a chain. All stores, all restaurants, etc. etc...all huge corporate owned chains. Pretty bland and boring. The only thing that makes this area (Texas) fun to live in is all the guns.
