Coffee Shop Location Comparison

This comparison matrix puts three potential coffee shop locations against the same practical criteria. Morning and weekend foot traffic indicate different demand patterns, monthly rent captures a cost difference, and parking records a customer-access factor. The rows are facts or observations rather than weighted scores, so the chart does not claim that one location is best. That distinction matters when an owner still needs to decide how much rent, commuter traffic, parking, nearby competitors, visibility, and lease terms matter. Use the matrix to make missing research visible, then convert it to a weighted decision matrix when the priorities are clear. Keep location facts current because local construction, transit changes, and lease offers can change the comparison.
