When you think of WalMart, do you typically think of crime? Just Google 'WalMart crime' and you'll pull up a number of website and stories with crimes that have occurred in and around Walmart. Here is a screenshot of a SpotCrime crime list of a few WalMart crimes Scary? Or typical? To put things in perspective, there are about 629 WalMarts and 3,029 super-center Walmarts in the US today.  Each WalMart employs about 225-350 associates and the size of the average store is approximately 108,000-185,000 square feet. If you were to place all of the WalMarts in the US in one city, it would cover about 22 square miles (that's not even not including parking lots) a size equivalent to cities like Longmont, CO and Madera, CA .  However, the employee population of the WalMart city would much larger than Longmont or Madera, it would be approximately 1, 201,675  people - about the same size as Dallas, TX or San Diego, CA - and that doesn't include the customers!
