I don't go any further north than downtown these days. But I went to this Walmart recently. Oh my God, it looked like a total hell on earth blatant shop lifting, rude staff a ton of druggies all over the police. No security to speak of. They're down the street from the Greyhound so who knows what might be pouring in there. Wow, is there any attempt to remove that homeless encampment adjacent to the property?

It's really not though. Source: former employee. We'd go to the north side ones to help out at least once a quarter and it's a shit show
damn downvoted even though you literally worked there 😂
Springfield is stupid sometimes

What up with all the shitting on poor people in this sub lately?
New here?
It's one thing to be poor and another to live on the shittiest part of town while using drugs and commiting more crime
This is such a trash perspective. Practice some empathy.
Class warfare internet naivety. Hope you never miss a meal, shower or anything else in the privelaged life we all know you lead.
bro honestly gfys. Miserable take from a miserable sounding human
Isn't that greyhound closed/moved? Get over yourself. This is just a normal Springfield Walmart.

Greyhound is still there
So you haven't been up there at all.
Greyhound has been operating out of the downtown bus station for awhile now, and the old building doesn't even have their branding on it anymore.
The Greyhound Station was purchased by Bass pro and is being remodeled into a health clinic for its employees.
>I don't go any further north than downtown these days.
Coward.
There honestly isn't much for me to do further north than downtown. I stopped there and saw clear drug deals. Security guard who told me to fuck off. Feces in front of the store. A guy walking around covered in swastika tattoos
Lol none of that happened.
Ok maybe the swastika tattoo.
Yeah, must have come in from the county

Sorry you had to be near some homeless people. Let us know what’s poppin in nixa
This is an excessive amount of strung out homeless. Please telling what's "poppin" in Southwest Missouri in general
An enormous spike in rent prices and no affordable housing for people on the poverty line, last I checked.
You know, if we had adequate shelter and places for homeless people to be, they might not be near Walmart. Have you considered devoting this energy to advocating for that?

I was just there. This post is ridiculous.
Lol this didn’t happen. Has to be a joke. A dumb fuck of a joke, but yeah.
100% didn't happen. What did happen, is the poor innocent soul up there had to stand next to somebody wearing disheveled clothes and noticed a homeless person standing outside. Their imagination did the rest.

That Greyhound is gone. It's Bass Pros Family Health Clinic...
This is total nonsense. I was just there. I’m sure they’d appreciate your kind of enthusiasm in Jeff City though. 🙄 SMH
Oh, and my favorite Walmart cashier is at this store, so at some point, I just stopped going to the others if I could help it. I always look for her.
jeff city is literally better than SPF in every single facet lmao. but sure keep your mega churches, shitty police, and god awful drivers i think we’ll be okay
That is normal bro, try to have some compassion the state just actively decided it was for removing the homeless at all costs
[removed]
So sorry you had to travel further north than downtown. Next time try the Kansas Expressway Walmart.
Please tell me this is bait, lmao!
Isn’t that just every Walmart in town? They did go through and get all the homeless people out of that property a few years ago (plus a few bodies if I remember correctly) but from what I understand it’s a private property and the owner isn’t in state and doesn’t care I guess. Wish that our city would do some more to clean it up on the north side but it just gets neglected. The O’Rileys seems to be about it as far as trying to invest in the north side and actually bring in some business over here.
No, the north ones are definitely worse. Part of it is clientele, part of it is on Walmart
I'm from out of the city but have to come in for all of my shopping (rural) and I've been to this one. It honestly didn't seem so bad.

Get over it, yuppie
That's some bold druggies
Northern Springfield typically is worse.

I go to that store at least 3 times a week since I work near. I can say with 100% certainty that everything you said here is completely false. Literally all of it. Get a hobby man.
