Downtown Grand Rapids Credit Card Spending Data

Recommended Posts

MLive posted a story today called, "JPMorgan Chase gives downtown Grand Rapids leaders rare look at credit card spending data"

 

Some interesting data from the stats:

 

Downtown residents made 80 percent of their local purchases outside of the downtown area.
 
Restaurants made up 14 percent of the purchases made by downtown residents while 13 percent went to home improvement and landscaping outlets. Gas stations were the next big category at 12 percent.
 
Seventy-one percent of downtown residents bought their groceries less than 5 miles away. The 49525 ZIP code, home of the Knapp's Corner Meijer and a D&W’s Fresh Market location, was the largest destination for downtown grocery dollars.

 

 

Thoughts?

Yeah, where do people buy home improvement and landscaping supplies downtown? I thought that was interesting. The fact also that downtown residents spend 80% of their credit card purchases OUTSIDE of downtown is not suprising, with the Knapp's Corner Meijer coming in at #1.

Lets get meijer to build a really awesome looking urban store on area 4 or 5 lot with an in ground parking ramp where you can have free parking with X Dollar purchase and a 20 story tower above it housing some of their corporate operations  :good:
