#1,934 - As Target shuts down 2 Seattle stores residents question if crime is really to blame

Ready for a deep dive into the truth behind the recent closure of nine Target stores across the United States? Brace yourselves as we expose the myriad of factors that may have led to these decisions. Amid rising rent costs, increasing crime rates, and the infiltration of third-party security guards, we unravel the complex context around these closures. Hold on tight as we shatter the false notion of Seattle's communities being safe and crime-free and shine a light on the city's dark underbelly of stolen goods, drugs, and prostitution.

Ever wondered how city dynamics impact large scale retail businesses? We navigate the labyrinth of challenges these retailers often face, such as physical violence and the complications brought on by COVID. Our episode scrutinizes the interesting timing of Target's closures in Seattle's University District, which coincides with the neighborhood's expansion due to zoning changes. We further probe into Seattle's contrasting efforts to present a sanitized image during events like the All Star Game. And if that's not enough, we delve into the murky waters of inconsistent police responses and the worrisome consequences of businesses refraining from calling 911. Buckle up, this is one episode you don't want to miss.
