Poll Results: Lansdale Says No To Most Chains, Yes To Healthy Foods

The results are in.

On Tuesday, we asked you what businesses you’d most like to see in Lansdale.

As it turns out, local residents are not too keen on the idea of the increasing commercial expansion in the area.

Although Trader Joe’s led all options with 29% of the vote, it hardly qualifies as an international chain, with only 457 stores scattered throughout the United States.

More atypical chain stores received only a tiny fraction of the vote.

In fact, about 90% of all participants voted against traditional chains and less healthy food options in favor of Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and local mom and pop shops.

Full results are included below:

• Trader Joe’s 29%
• The area needs less chains and more local stores and mom and pop shops 25%
• Other 23%
• Whole Foods 12%
• Pizza Hut 4%
• REI 4%
• Eastern Mountain Sports 3%
• Burger King 0%
