@thoreauberon - This is an odd comment. Businesses tend to target themselves to their customers. Their customers tend to be those people who are buying from them, and they target their businesses to those most likely to continue buying from them.
By the very nature of the cash-based economy, there will always be some businesses that serve peoples of all incomes. Some of those businesses, like Wal Mart, are bad, but others, like Meijer, are pretty good.
what is Local First and other neighborhood associations doing to make sure that the businesses serve the WHOLE community and not just upper middle class white folks? Is anything being done to prevent complete gentrification?
