Yes, there are pockets of wealth in Northern Macomb County, but it's nothing like Northern Oakland County. By and large, it's a solidly working class / middle class area. This particular customer base has been hit hard [[buying power and income-wise) over the past 15-20 years, and thus aren't going out to shop and spend money as much as they did when these malls were built. Thus, the stores that used to cater to them have either shuttered their locations or gone bankrupt.
