The retail mix around its sites
Median count of each category within 3 miles, and that category's share of all mapped retail in the ring. The share is what makes this a fingerprint rather than a density reading — it is what separates a Walmart trade area from a Starbucks one.

What the “vs typical site” column means. It is this chain's median divided by the median across all 173,178 tracked retail sites. 1.00× is exactly typical. It describes where the chain is today; it is not a prediction and not a judgement about any individual location.
Every count around a Great Clips site is computed with Great Clips itself excluded, so a chain never counts its own stores.
