CINCINNATI (Cincinnati Business Courier) - When a Greater Cincinnati Walmart location closes next month, it'll result in the laying off of nearly 200 employees who work at the store. Walmart (NYSE: WMT) announced last week that it will close its retail location at 1143 Smiley Ave. in Forest Park on April 22. It alerted the state of Ohio through a notice filed under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act that the closure would result in the termination of all 187 employees at the facility

Good chili.
I have driven through at twilight a few times. The skyline is so beautiful I had tears running down my face.
Try the goetta chili?
Maybe the folks in this area will become desperate enough to eventually open up some good old mom & pop shops, again. once they teach their thugs a lesson.
LOL. Why else would Walmart close a store except for “shrinkage” losses.
ROFL! Oh please. That shit sucks.
Walmart’s business model caters to those spending taxpayers’ money. They actively contribute to this.
Is the K-mart on Oak Street in Cincinnati still open though?.....
Now they will be living in a food desert!
Census data shows Forest Park has a population of 18,700 with 12,000 being black. Count on some “community activists” to accuse Wal Mart of discrimination.
Cincinnati chili is different from Tex-Mex chili, but it is possible to enjoy both.
When I think of Cincinnati in terms of food, bratwurst, sauerbraten and rotkohl--not chili--is what first comes to mind.
It’s the largest city in Kentucky.
Cincinnati is bifurcated. Tons of super rich people and 50% black and Appalachian poor. Forest Park is now a mostly lower middle class black suburb. Probably closing due to shop lifting and employee danger. This is World corporate headquarters for P&G, Kroger, American Financial and Cintas. In my neighborhood, if a house sells for $450k or less they tear it down and use the lot for a 1.5mm plus new build.
But the Karens have sided with the ghetto and everything has gone Demorat.
Karens do not like rude tweets.
Lived in Cincinnati, actually Anderson Township, a suburb just east of Cincinnati for nearly two decades. Cincinnati (Hamilton County) in general terms is conservative. Great family city, people are friendly ... a very nice city. Their NFL team the Bengals sucked the years I lived there but with Burrow as QB they may have turned the corner. The owner of the team Mike Brown is the most unpopular men in the city. He basically held the city hostage while demanding a new stadium to replace the 25 year old existing stadium. His tactic ... he threatened to move the team ... the city council folded and he got his stadium that came in (price wise) over twice the original cost estimate. In spite of their impressive run at the Super Bowl this past season Cincinnatian taxpayers haven't forgotten.
‘Shrinkage.’
I have always loved that term, ever since I worked as a Stock Boy in Woolworth’s and had to watch the Candy Aisle when the schools got out.
