The first sentence is true of any business though.

I can't speak for your area, but I don't think it's necessarily that there are so few left, but it's that there were so many back in the late 80s and early 90s that it makes it seem like there are so few left today. I'm 7 minutes (3.1 miles) from Houston's longest-standing card store. I'm within 15 minutes of others.
