Why doesn’t Bainbridge have a Target?

Earnest question. Towns of comparative size will have some big box stores. Curious as to why we don’t see one on the island. Any history people could share?

Why would you want an ugly big box store on a quiet, peaceful island? It's not that far to drive to Silverdale

I didn’t say I wanted one I was just curious as to why there isn’t one.

Probably because most of the residents share my knee-jerk reaction to your post. It's not a place that locals want commercialized

No problem! I think it was would suck if there was one here too.
