The trade area has a population of 390,425 and $5.6 billion in retail trade potential.

Residents of this trade area see Jackson as their primary source for goods and services. They make frequent trips to Jackson because of the variety of retail, entertainment and medical care that is not available in the more rural trade area.

While all of Jackson attracts outside retail, Thomsen Farms benefits from the retail gravitation created by nearby big box retailers including the only Target and Office Max stores in the trade area. The variety of retail and number of retail stores attracts trade area residents to the location.
