Sure, I would. In the scope of giant corpo entities, Costco seems like they'd be a decent-enough neighbor to have. They keep short hours: The earliest they're open for regular knuckle-draggers and ruffians is 9:30AM. They're never open after 8:30PM. On weekends, they wrap up by 6:00 or 7:00PM.

Last time I went to Costco, I parked over by the edge of the lot by fences with single-family homes behind them.

It was a busy time of day, but it seemed quiet enough. I remember thinking to myself, "Self, if I lived there, then the first thing I'd do is install a gate in that fence so I could just walk over to Costco."

And I've certainly lived in much noisier neighborhoods with far fewer opportunities to walk around and conduct commerce. I'll take the noise of Costco parking lot traffic over that of a congested 5-way city intersection any day.

Living on a steady diet of $1.50 all-beef hot dogs (with a Coke (with refill!)) probably wouldn't be the healthiest way, but I think I'd find a balance somehow.

Actually, yes, I do. That would be very convenient. Then again, I'm a city dweller. My grocery store is one block over, I literally just walk there with a fold-up wagon.

I would derive direct and tangible value from a costco nextdoor, not so from a datacenter.
