Precisely. There is enough business to support three Starbucks outlets, so there are three Starbucks outlets.

There's a similar situation here with local discount drug chain. They are successfully competing with Walgreens, CVS et al because they are everywhere. I think there are three with walking distance of me, two of which are 24 hour operations.

The big national chains can't offer anything compelling enough to counter that presence.
