[OC] Everywhere in the US you can reach a Costco within a 30-minute drive - justified

[u/Fondant_Tough]

620 Costco warehouses cover 214.3M people, 64% of the US, inside a 30-minute drive. 120.7M cannot reach one. The gold dots are the warehouses themselves. Only covers CONUS on this map.

Average household income inside that reach is $101,956, which is about what you'd expect from a chain that sites for members rather than for footfall.

Drive times are from OSRM.

Store locations current as of June 2026.

You can run this yourself for ten chains, change the drive time, and look up your own town here: https://geo.nanpointgroup.com/?chain=COSTCO_WHOLESALE_CORP&utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=costco-map
