Walmart has 1,906 Supercenters, 1,000 more than it did 5 years ago.
A typical Walmart Supercenter offers 120,000 different items for sale.
53 percent of the U.S. population lives within five miles of a Walmart; 90 percent live within fifteen miles; 97 percent live within 20 miles.
A sixteen year-old sewing operator at a factory in Bangladesh describes her experiences of working for a supplier to Walmart. She earned 13 cents an hour, fourteen hours of work a day, $26.98 a month. If she didn't sew to the mandated pace, pockets onto 120 pants per hour, a supervisor would slap her across the face with the pants she was sewing. "This happens often. They hit you hard. It is no joke." At this wage, if she were to work there for 50 years, her total wages would have been $16,200. Walmart's profit in 2004 was $19,597 a minute.

A toilet.
It's absolutely true, you know - any given 90 percent of the population of the united states does, in fact, live within 15 miles of a toilet.
It's probably not the answer you're looking for, but it is a correct answer.

Can't be a Starbucks, the distance would be much less, and the percentage higher.
