There is no room for a store the size of Wal-Mart in NYC (just in
case you hadn't noticed, there is more to NY than NYC), and it would
be too expensive to tear down existing buildings to build one in
NYC. There are tons of Wal-Marts in NYS.

Right. There's one in Albany. None in Brooklyn, Bronx, Buffalo, and
One in Niagra Falls. One each in Cheektowaga, Hamburg, Amherst,
Clarence, Lockport, Batavia, and Fredonia. Among others.


New York is lip-deep in Walmarts.

I found a page listing state ranking.

New York has 37 WalMart SuperCenters, slightly behind Kansas and Iowa, each
with 39. But way ahead of New Mexico (28). Texas has 259.

But Texas has more people who need bargains than does New York.
