Don't forget when a former big grocery store chain turns into a thrift mart.

Add an Asian massage joint and you got something there in that cluster.

When you see a building painted bright colors and it reads “USED TIRES” and there is a line of floor jacks outside, make sure you have one chambered.

I remember when I found out about used tires in college. I was pretty pumped.

Probably not the right lineup for you, but all the new illegals are going to love those stores.

Given that there are at least 5 CBD shops in my town of 15K people, I would say that it’s at least a very cheap business to start.


The point is, these businesses are just meeting the need, or desire.

Businesses don't succeed without a market. Evidently the things you listed are important to people in your area.

My town has the best schools in the state of LA.

Do black people in BR who fricked up the parish school system get to say “Everything you love about your town is because of me!”?

Its all some people have. Most of the world doesn't revolved around hipster desires.

The respectable elderly residents die and leave their homes to their kids who become absentee landlords. As the homes deteriorate the quality of tenants follows suit.
