We Raise You A Dollar

Family Dollar Store (Syracuse, NY)

According to commercial real estate analyst Garrick Brown, in the past five years, it is estimated that about five Dollar General (Dollar Tree) Stores open daily in the US.

The chains are an example of dubious economic development in underserved neighborhoods and areas that are food deserts.

The source for our report comes from the blog Bessette Pitney.
