Macy's nearest audiences span an unusually wide range of categories — footwear, big-box retail, jewelry, food service, fitness, and financial services all appear in the top 10 — with no single neighbor pulling far ahead of the rest.
The shape is flat: scores run from 0.92 at the top down to 0.88 at position 10, a compressed band with no dominant anchor. ALDO leads at 0.92, followed by Target at 0.90 and Vans at 0.90. Pandora (0.90) and Bakeries, Desserts & Confectioneries (0.90) round out the top five. Tallying the subcategories across all ten neighbors: Footwear accounts for two entries (ALDO, Vans), Big Box Retailers for one (Target), Jewelry and Accessories for one (Pandora), Bakeries Desserts and Confectioneries for one, Apparel General for one (General), Commercial Real Estate for one (Commercial Real Estate), Beauty Salons and Spas for one (Phenix Salon Suites), and Fitness Centers and Gyms for one (LA Fitness). No single subcategory dominates. Crucially, no other Department Store appears in the top 10 — Macy's own subcategory is entirely absent from its nearest neighbors, meaning its audience shape is defined by apparel-adjacent and everyday-service categories rather than by its own retail tier.
The flat, cross-kind structure suggests an audience that moves fluidly across mall-anchored retail, fitness, and food — a broad consumer profile with no single gravitational center.
