|  | Brooklyn presents a golden opportunity to retailers – a massive consumer market is underserved:
- Brooklyn makes only half of Nassau's $14 billion retail sales, for the same $31 billion of disposable income
- Therefore, Brooklyn offers a $7 billion opportunity for retailers
- Brooklyn also offers a dense concentration of consumers: less than 150,000 people live within three miles of the Sunrise Mall in Nassau County, while 950,000 people live within three miles of Atlantic Center in Downtown Brooklyn
- There currently exists $1.4 billion in untapped retail sales potential for Downtown Brooklyn
- Area residents, workers and students have approximately $6.2 billion in total retail purchasing power
- Retail locations such as Kings Plaza and Atlantic Center generate sales per square foot that are 25 percent to 100 percent greater than other sales in the area
- Brooklyn’s 19 business improvement districts provide small to mid-size businesses with sanitation, security, façade improvements, and lighting
