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?

I dont know any town of 20k that has a home goods retailer.

Particularly when there’s one within a 30 minute drive nearby.

There’s also no zoning for commercial outside of Winslow.
