By the Numbers: A Statistical Safari Through Walmart Nation
According to Walmart's own store directory, the Big Apple (and the rest of the state, for that matter) boasts a whopping 98 Walmart locations. That's right, folks, nearly 100 Walmarts! Now, that's a lot of blue vests and rollback signs. But wait, there's more! We're not just talking about your average discount den. New York breaks down its Walmart love like this:
- Supercenter Stride: 82 Supercenters reign supreme, offering that one-stop shop experience for everything from groceries to lawnmowers (because, let's be honest, who wants to shop anywhere else when you can get everything on your list and a new weed whacker in one fell swoop?)
- Discount Delight: 16 Discount Stores hold down the fort for the no-frills shopper. Need socks, laundry detergent, and a spatula? These guys got you covered.
- Neighborhood Niche: There's even a lone Neighborhood Market, offering a more curated selection of groceries for those seeking a slightly more boutique Walmart experience. (Yes, that's a thing now, apparently.)
- Sam's Club Stampede: And let's not forget the 12 Sam's Clubs, where bulk buying becomes an Olympic sport.
So, there you have it. New York and Walmart: a match made in retail heaven (or at least a match made in someone's spreadsheet that showed a realllllly strong market for discount everything).

- Price Point Pilgrims: For others, it's about price. Walmart's known for its low prices, and let's face it, New York ain't exactly cheap. So, if you're on a budget, Walmart becomes your BFF.
- Selection Swoon: And then there's the sheer selection. From groceries to electronics to clothes (because, let's be honest, those graphic tees practically sell themselves), you can find just about anything at Walmart. It's like a retail Disneyland for those who enjoy a good shopping expedition (or maybe that's just me?).
Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Walmart?
