Northwest Arkansas
I don't really know where to post this, considering this isn't a very popular topic, but I think that the Apple Stores need to spread out more across the Eastern United States. I would speak for other countries, but I do not know where the stores are in other countries. There are fewer stores in East Central US. I am more specifically speaking in the Northwest Arkansas area. The Walmart home office is here. Walmart brings in LOTS of people in from lots of different areas. I also know over 100 people in the area that have iMacs, Mac Pros, iPhones, iPads, etc. I think that it would really help Apple. Northwest Arkansas is not all HICKS like everyone thinks. There are name brand stores, people drive around in Mercedes-Benz's and BMW's. Walmart may even start supplying people with Apple computers. IDK. What do you guys think?

Move.

Apple selects their store locations based on a lot of different factors. If they think they can make money in NW Arkansas, they will open a store there should a suitable venue be available.

I agree with you, but I think that they might also be thinking about competition with Walmart, BestBuy, and all of the other stores around here.


Yeah, Apple's worried that all the emo kids will be in Walmart and not the Apple Store.
