In the 1980's I worked until 11pm and could grocery shop in Nixa after work. I think this area goes backward.

I’m out in California now. It’s the same here now. I’ve traveled to a good couple dozen states since Covid hit. It’s the same in all of them. Outside of maybe NYC (the city that literally never sleeps), it’s nearly impossible to find a 24-hour supermarket anymore. Albertsons near me in California closes at 11pm. Jewel-Oscos in Chicago close at midnight. Even in the densest parts of Los Angeles, Ralph’s closes at 1am (better than 11pm, but not 24 hours).
