13-year-old asks, What next after Home Depot,
Wal-Mart?

I am a 13-year-old and I am concerned about the building of these big stores in Peachtree City.

First, they are putting in a Home Depot. Now, they are putting in a Wal-Mart. What will be next?

Peachtree City should not have these stores, when we are about 15 minutes away from the same stores in Fayetteville.

Let's say you were living in a neighborhood, and all of a sudden, they built a Home Depot right across from you. Most people would not like it. They would constantly be in traffic, and nobody would want to move into the house. Who would want to move into a house right in front of a Home Depot?

These stores can really change Peachtree City into an area that nobody would like. It would be consumed by humongous stores like it is starting to now. I do not think this should happen.

Peachtree City is great the way it is now. I do not think it should change by building Wal-Marts and Home Depots.
