So there just...wasn't one? The Bronx is 57 square miles, with a population density of 35000/sqmi. The town I live in is 58 square miles, with a density of <2000/sqmi.

I searched "bookstore" on google maps around my town, and quit counting at 13.

Can someone explain the benefits of living on top of one another in such a congested area when nobody delivers services even as basic as a bookstore, while my podunk place in "flyover country" has now 13x the number of available outlets for something like this?
