I think you've just highlighted another problem, most people who live in Ossy don't work here.

The days of Dad goes to work, Mum walks to the local shops daily, are long gone. Most people work and drive, and the supermarkets offer busy people convienience. Without that core customer base, most business can't rely on passing trade to survive, even if they got the occasional footfall from Ossy Mills.
