We are using the term "local" differently.
We have Menards and Home Depot in my town. Both are less than 5 miles from my house - they are local.
The closest Lowes is about 20-25 miles away.
You are correct in saying that all three are big box stores. Wasn't trying to imply the these are mom and pop stores.
"Local" implies locally owned and operated. We have very few local businesses, other than a few restaurants, tattoo parlors, and vape shops.
You're lucky having any kind of mom and pop business. We do have an empty lot at a busy intersection that has a fruit stand in season, then pumpkins, then Christmas trees, then empty again. I believe that's all local, except the Christmas trees are probably shipped in from the western part of the state.
Yes. I can see where the confusion came in.
We do not have a DIY store that is mom and pop owned.
We used to about 20-25 years back and we would shop there - until they had to close due to mismanagement/embezzlement issues.
Now I look at Menards and Home Depot in my town and realize that they employ my neighbors from the community.
