What I have seen in my neck of the woods is malls that are struggling or closed are typically older and now within the travel range of unsupervised urban teens. Not surprisingly, a herd of young teens girls attracts a herd of young teen gang members. Viola, no sensible adult urban or suburban dweller will shop there anymore. Same thing happened to downtown city centers in the early 70’s. Interestingly, many city centers are reviving again to create a thriving inner ring and outer ring separated by center ring of urban blight.

It has been about a decade since I was inside a mall and it wasn't my idea. The relatives wanted to go so we sat and people watched. Oooh, what we saw! It was prom night and was apparently the place for obama sons to troll and show off their baby mamas. It looked more like pimps with their girls showing off their wares in dresses cut to waaaay down there.
