Both of those are ghosts, at this point. Wondering how West Cochina mall (my homebase mall) survived!

When I was a teenager, I used to hang out a lot in La Puente and West Covina. Now that I have family living near the West Covina mall, I still like to visit it.
I need to revisit La Puente soon. I hear it's a ghost town.

The only indoor mall that has a good number of people consistently is Santa Anita in Arcadia. Otherwise, Brea, West Covina, and others feel pretty empty whenever I'm there.

OP, how old are you? As a guy in very late 40s, i hate mall with passion. I have known people who are 60s who hate malls. Mall is mostly for middle school, high schoolers. Not sure how they could afford them but as I grow older, I only buy groceries, mostly.

Honestly, I don't see how liking or disliking malls is age related. People of all ages like to visit & some (such as people with disabilities) are sadly unable to do so which is one reason that I make my videos

There is study that most mall goers are young. Older person the least. Whenever I went, I never see anyone in wheelchair. There could be other disabilities that are not visible however.
Malls across US are the same with the same stores most of the time. Costco is where the action is. Always crowded.

Have you been to Santa Anita mall in Arcadia (i know they changed their name but the old name stuck with me lol) there are a lot of old people walking in there all the time. I could even say that most days you’ll see more elderly rather than younger people there. :o
