I expect the difference between rural and big city Walmarts, is in the number of stores,
not in their merchandise volume. The towns and cities in the USA are tied to the
transportation network. Perhaps few here remember the term "Whistle Stop". Rural
occupations and industries, like agriculture and mining, all require the means to send the
food stuff and raw materials to the city based processing and consumption. The roads
and rails go both ways.

Luck;
