If there are towns with grocery stores next door to dollar stores, the grocery stores were there first. Dollar stores came in afterward with no concern about putting an established grocery store out of business. Their work ethic, if you can call it that, is unconscionable. They’ve been involved in lawsuits regarding discrimination. There are numerous stories about dollar stores and how they prey on rural communities and derelict neighborhoods. I would feel dismayed, terribly disappointed, if a dollar store came into Empire. Would I try to sell my home before prices tumble? Quite possibly!
