I was able to narrow down the Dearborn area to the city developement area. I decided that this area would have the most success for a new business and be the most promising overall.
To get the most visual for my the skate shop, I determined that I would have to be on a major road. I eliminated any area that wasn't within two-hundred feet of either Schaefer or Michigan Ave.
After completing what I determined to be a proper way of eliminating some of the surrounding area, I was left with these parcels. These parcels are what I continued to work with as I put more data into the process.
The next step I took was to eliminate areas that weren't within a half mile of a park. Being closer to a park would give me an advantage since people buying products from me could easily use them in the area, in a safe manner. This step again, eliminated more parcels.
The remain areas are what I was left with. I then conducted one final step to eliminate more parcels from what is seen here.
Seeing that fast food chains conduct an extreme amount of research before placing a building in an area, I found that if I was within a quarter mile of at least one of these buildings, I'd be able to use this research that was already done, and use it for my benefit. This gave me my final results.
