Retail fills up much faster in my market.Office economy goes down they down size to warehouse space, move to office in house, or renegotiate the lease to take less space and do more commute work for themselves and employees,etc.I like retail because certain types of businesses NEED the storefront to drive sales on a daily basis mainly experiential type tenants and more internet resistant where consumers cannot conduct business online.Example a karate school where you go workout versus a vitamin shop where you can find a cheaper company online to order from and ship to your house or business.Office for medical can be strong.

I used to go to the vitamin store in the strip mall, now I order on Amazon from my couch.

Warning, it's going to require taking some extra vitamins (no I don't sell any, lol) so that you can stay up for the Second Shift.

Yes, plants are harder to break down, thats why we were ingeniously designed the way we are.Cooking foods kills all the enzymes, and a chunk of the vitamins.
