There are 59 Starbucks within a 2 mile radius of the center of Seattle. There are 437 within 50 miles of Seattle. There are only 52 within 50 miles of St. Louis.

There are 17 Costco locations within 50 miles of my house. There are only two within 50 miles of St. Louis.

Sad. Oh, so very sad. For St. Louis!
