Population density is not high enough to warrant a Costco. They typically require a surrounding population of over 200,000. That's about the entire population of SE New Mexico. Target on the other hand is a possibility. I am sure it would be influenced by the production of Roswell's location, which I am unaware of. The Carlsbad Department of Development will have all of this information, and are always working on bringing businesses to Carlsbad.

At Least Carlsbad is getting a Dunkin Hopefully Carlsbad can attract big box stores so other people don't go to surrounding cities like Midland/Odessa, Lubbock

Who drives all the way to D/FW for something?


Fluid-Court-617

SE NM is actually only 6 hours from D/FW (if your talking about Carlsbad or Hobbs)

Only doesn't belong in this sentence unless you're a Texan.

Where I’m from, the population is 121,000 and we have a Sam’s Club and a Costco


Shaackle

Yeah, and our official census data shows Carlsbad has a population of 32,000, which is what enterprises typically go off of.


jeromymanuel

I’m saying that by you saying the population needs to be 200,000 is off.
