Downtown Rutland Vermont - Beautiful Saturday but Where Are All the People?
Lots of businesses old and new are in the downtown of Rutland, VT with very few vacancies, but I don't ever see a significant number of people walking around or in these establishments, whether it's Christmas season or a beautiful Spring Saturday right after the Farmer's Market (which does get a lot of people) like today. I don't get it. #vermont #spring #drive #driving #rutland

Beautiful town
Online ordering is killing all the brick & mortar stores and it is happening throughout the world not just in the USA.
It is happening here in Vietnam, same. Everyone borrowing money, short changed!
It’s very expensive to own and operate a physical store front these days. Not sure where the money is coming from, but check it out again in six months and see how many are still open.
I'm from plattsburgh ny.

Seems like a nice small town. Peak population (19,293) was in 1970 and slowly sliding downhill since. Plenty of parked cars so people are somewhere. Maybe stop in and ask the shop owners how business has been lately rather than assuming the worst based on overall foot traffic.
lots of parked cars where are the people
That is the situation in the US and Canada. Life is totally different in Europe.
Everyone in Rutland is busy trying to make money for northern California companies. Like, KZread/Google. No time to shop in Rutland.
