I watch a lot of Dead Mall videos on YouTube and I wanted to see what everyone's thoughts are on why there's so many dead malls now.

"Cruisin" is no longer a thing

That's not the case in much of the rural US. In small towns (~30-75k) everywhere there are kids driving up and down the road every Friday and Saturday night.

It's because they can't remember where their meth dealer lives this week.

You'll just have to trust me, or ask an old timer from one of those cities you speak of (I'm from one of several in the area). They're about 1/4 the amount of traffic that they used to be.
