Perfect Boutique Location

I know where I want to have my store which is in Huntsville, AL. I know I want it within 5 miles of Alabama A&M. I know most of my customers will be high school students and mainly college students who have functions to attend (parties, church, school clubs/events, formals, etc.). I know there are other major retailers in the area like Forever21 and H&M, but would not offer the exact same product at the low cost and boutique feel like myself. There are a couple boutiques with lovely pieces but a little more costly than my price point aim.

I am mainly looking for a stand alone, with a very low rental (owner) price. Here are a few things I have been looking at while location searching:

1. Look at several locations before choosing your store site.
2. Check into any local ordinances and zoning regulations that apply.
3. Determine your store's parking needs.
4. Decide whether the site is worth the rent.
5. Define the selling point of your store's location.
6. Determine whether the location is an area of potential growth.
7. Define your store's space needs.
