WFPL: "Louisville Participates in Small Business Survey."

It doesn't surprise me, either. Shift happens, after all.

Louisville Participates in Small Business Survey, by Devin Katayama (WFPL)

A new survey has released early results showing the positive economic effects of Louisville’s locally-owned businesses, as opposed to big retail chains, which doesn’t surprise the local business community ...

... Preliminary results for Louisville show what the alliance has always assumed. Nearly $40 of every $100 spent at local businesses stays in the community. The survey compares the local businesses against three large chain stores, including Home Depot, Target and Barnes & Noble. At these chains the community only keeps $14 of every $100.
