Bass Pro Shops sits at the top of Credit Unions' similarity graph at 0.77 — and it isn't another financial institution. That cross-kind lead, paired with Buffalo Wild Wings at 0.75 as the second-strongest neighbor, defines the two-peak structure here: one peak anchored in outdoor retail and sporting goods, the other in casual and quick-service dining.
The top 10 neighbors span six different subcategories, with no other Credit Union appearing until Navy Federal Credit Union at position 19 (0.64) in the broader set — meaning the audience shape is defined almost entirely by cross-kind overlap. Within the top 10, United States Space Force (0.71) is the only Government entity, and it sits alongside Famous Footwear (0.70) and Upper Deck (0.69) — a footwear retailer and a trading card brand — reinforcing how far the shape strays from the financial category. Rounding out the ten are Wayback Burgers (0.68), PUMP RULES (0.67), Qdoba Mexican Grill (0.67), Once Upon a Child (0.67), and Great Clips (0.66) — a mix of QSR, casual dining, thrift retail, and personal services. The military-adjacent signal from Space Force is consistent with the broader neighbor set, where U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army appear further down, suggesting a meaningful but not dominant military-community thread running through the audience.
The overall shape is that of a mainstream, value-oriented consumer audience with strong ties to outdoor recreation and casual dining — not the financial-services peer group one might expect.
