Rep Power: 10 | Notice no stores in Oregon or Washington are closing. We are wired out here!!
We have four Starbucks in our city and the population is only 16,000. This doesn't include the independent coffee shops and there at least four of those as well. Coffee is one thing we will never run out of around here. 
Oops...just saw our new population sign, we now have over 25,000! When did 9,000 more people move here? Where was I???

Rep Power: 10 | If I go to the next town over, which is just 2 miles from here, they have 5 Starbucks that I know of. I would bet there are more, but I don't get too far into that town. Just do things on the outskirts but I'm never without coffee.
