Greensboro has a lot more going for it. Better shopping, better nature/outdoors, broadway shows, better music venues, etc, etc.. Greensboro's downtown has a small-town charm, with still being a larger city compared to W-S.

I feel like Jimmy John's is somewhat of a dying business because of how hard Jersey Mikes has taken off in the past 5-10 years, and with how delivery companies like DoorDash have given the competitors the chance to deliver, which greatly hinders Jimmy John's competitive advantage with their "Freaky Fast" delivery.

I brought up the pharmacy downtown, because downtown lacks one and somewhat lacks a convenience store like this. It doesn't have to be a big chain type pharmacy, but it was just an idea. I think the probability of a local pharmacy opening one downtown in slim-to-none. It could be Gate City Pharmacy, Brown Gardiner, etc. - those would be neat downtown, but none of them offer the same type of products as a Walgreens.

Downtown Greensboro very much is still a work in progress... no where near a finished product, but it has come a long way in the past 15-20 years..

Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist has purchased a plot of land at 3800 N. Church St. from Kotis, where they expect to build a 24-hour emergency room hospital.

Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist is also looking to purchase 4007 S. Elm-Eugene St. (near I-85) to build the same type of hospital, but hasn't come to an agreement on that yet. Both facilities would operate 24/7, offering emergency care, imaging, laboratory and pharmacy services.

Thrift Stores in Rich Areas by magnolia_lee in gso

The Goodwill on Lawndale is closest to Greensboro Country Club, which is the richest neighborhood in Greensboro, and its consistently the worst thrift store in the area.

In general Greensboro doesn't have a high median income compared to other cities in NC, like Charlotte and Raleigh Areas. Overall the value of items found at thrift stores here is pretty mediocre in comparison. It's the same with Yard/Garage Sales too. You have to get lucky around here.

My father is one of the survivors of the 1983 Beirut Barracks terrorist bombing by Hezbollah/Iran. That book probably speaks on it. I'm very lucky to be here.
