I wanted to look into the city that the "Mall of America" is located, and compare the statistics of people before the mall was created and after.
By 1990 Bloomington grew to become Minnesota's 3rd largest city with a population of 90,000. Two years later, Bloomington gained the upper hand in creating a visitor base with the grand opening of Mall of America. Mall of America is the largest retail complex in the United States and has become one of the largest tourist attractions in North America with an average of 39 million visitors every year.
Population
Bloomington, located in Hennepin County, Minnesota, is the largest suburb in the Twin Cities with a population of 90,000. The entire Twin Cities metropolitan area has a population of approximately three million.

What connection can this make to DestiNY? How do they compare in jobs? Would our climate have a different effect on tourists? Interesting figures but there is not really an argument.
