The rent is too dang high! I remember when Jaunt hair salon moved out of Decatur. Someone said they were paying 6K each month for rent. That’s a lot of hair to make the rent! Decatur is going to run off all the mom-and-pop stores if they’re not careful and, like someone already said, it’ll be a ghosttown. Or, zombietown.
