How we build and date every file: methodology.

Using ChatGPT, Claude or an API?

No setup needed. Ask ChatGPT or Claude your question about the Dollar General Store Locations and give it this page: it can open https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=dollar-general-stores with the filters you need and show you the count and price.

Using ChatGPT or Claude? Tell it to answer from locationlists.com/find — no account, no connector.

How assistants ask

No connector needed. Any AI assistant can answer from this site with a web link, no connector, no account: open https://locationlists.com/find with the question as query parameters.

If a question needs filtering, distance, drive time, combining lists or a price, open a /find link: either put the question itself in q=, or build the structured link. The answer does not need an API, a connector or an account.

Simplest, the question itself: https://locationlists.com/find?q=<the question in plain words>

Or set the parts yourself: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=<slug>&state=<ST>&city=<city>&county=<county>&zip=<zip>&near=<place or zip>&radius=<miles>&drive=<minutes>&where=<column>:<op>:<value>&total=<rows>

Leave out what the question does not need. Use radius for straight-line miles or drive for minutes of driving (5 to 60), not both; near can name several places separated by | to reach from any of them. To ask about several lists at once, use datasets with two or more names, or category with a kind of business. To compare two lists, add relate=nearest and the other list with b. in front of its parameters. To count by area, use areas=county (or zip, state, metro). To keep only places whose county, ZIP code, metro area or state meets a Census figure, add area_where (for example county:population>1000000); with areas, per=100000 gives counts per 100,000 residents.

Links an assistant can open, each showing how many rows match, a few preview rows and the price for just that part:

Optional: connect for repeat use or wallet payments:

Read https://locationlists.com/skill.md and follow the instructions to connect LocationLists. Then show me the Dollar General Store Locations list.

Your assistant will walk you through setup and show you the price before you pay.

For developers

Every step below has a no-connector equivalent: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=dollar-general-stores with the same filters as query parameters.

  1. Connect your agent to https://locationlists.com/mcp (no key, no signup).
  2. Call count_locations with dataset: "dollar-general-stores" and any filter — it is free, and returns how many rows match and what they cost.
  3. Fetch the rows with query_locations: $0.64 per 100 rows from this dataset. Above 10,950 rows, buying the whole file is cheaper.

Paid in USDC over x402 — the agent gets an HTTP 402 with the exact price, signs, and retries. Money moves only after rows are delivered, so a failed or empty query costs nothing. Setup for Claude, Cursor and VS Code

We're a CPG brand evaluating Dollar General as a distribution channel. What can we learn from this data?

With 21,900 stores mapped, you can analyze Dollar General's density by state, metro area, and rural vs urban markets. Overlay against your existing retail distribution to identify how many incremental consumer touchpoints Dollar General adds. The GPS coordinates enable trade area analysis showing which communities rely on Dollar General as a primary retail destination — these are often food desert or retail desert markets where your brand would have outsized impact.

We're a last-mile delivery startup. How dense is Dollar General's rural coverage?

Dollar General is the single best proxy for rural America's retail footprint. Their 21,900 stores reach communities that Walmart, Target, and Amazon struggle to serve. Mapping these locations against census data reveals the rural population clusters your delivery network needs to reach. Many Dollar General stores serve as de facto town centers in communities under 20,000 people.

How does Dollar General compare to Dollar Tree in terms of coverage?

Dollar General (21,900 stores) has significantly more locations than Dollar Tree (~16,000), and crucially, their store placement strategies differ. Dollar General targets rural and exurban communities while Dollar Tree focuses more on suburban strip malls. We are adding Dollar Tree data soon — combining both datasets will give you the complete dollar store landscape for competitive analysis.
