No I think you are correct that stores in nicer areas do charge more when compared to stores in areas that are more middle class oriented.
For example here in Vegas the wal-mart near Nellis AFB charges less than the wal-mart in Green Valley which is a nicer area.
I think it has more to do with higher property values etc.
Now I haven't gone to check out the grocery stores in the area of town I call alphabet city.
alphabet city = any part of town that has streets named for just one letter of the alphabet. A st. J ave etc.
For some reason these streets in almost every major city I've lived in are high crime areas, infested with drugs etc...and for some reason this again holds true in Vegas...LOL.
But anyway, I don't think it would really matter much here due to the fact that this city while crowded isn't really all that large.
I find grocery stores on just about every corner so the competition here is pretty strong, but prices compared to Texas still higher.
