That's weird.

The Wal-Marts here (and I suspect nationally) are trying to "Target-ize" themselves, but they still end up looking more rundown and dirtier.

Most WMs are in "right off the highway/bus stop" locations, while Targets are closer to neighborhoods. The Whole Foods stores (with the exception of one) are located in ultra-affluent areas. When you walk inside the stores, the difference between the 3 is extremely obvious.
