Stores like that ussually need a population of at least 10,000 in a five mile radius to open in the area.

Will a population of 100,000 in a five mile radius work?

There might be 100,000 people within a five mile radius, but much of that population, not all mind you, is low to middle class. I should know because i grew up about a mile from DT.
As for living downtown, I'm convincing my wife more and more everyday to move DT. She comes from one of these suburban is better families. The only thing keeping me from moving DT is that we only make about 55,000 a year right now which means be proabably couldn't afford a condo, but after I graduate and get a job there shouldn't be a problem. Good thing is though we could probably rent something in Southtown for now. I was lookin at the new townhomes by the bluestar.
