Dollar General: local figures for Texas.
FigureValueWhat it measuresTexas only
Locations in Texas2,166Records the US location index holds for Dollar General inside Texas right now — a snapshot at the Q3 2026 release, not a change over time.
Rank among Dollar General's states1st of 48By location count, among the states where this brand clears the publication floor.
States with a published Dollar General page48States where the brand has at least 3 locations. Smaller states exist in the index and are not published.
Locations across those states23,336The sum of the state table below. Lower than the national count, which includes states under the floor.
Texas's share of that footprint9.3%A share of the published states only. Both halves are the same measure, so this is not a growth rate.
Index opening records in Texas182A DIFFERENT measure from the count above: openings detected inside the tracked window, not stores standing today.
Cities with index opening records in Texas134Distinct cities after folding spelling variants. See the city table.
  • The two counts above are measured differently and are both correct. Locations in Texas is a presence snapshot of what operates there now; index opening records counts what opened inside the tracked window. A chain that already had 40 locations in Texas and opened none reads 0 openings.
  • It is a count of OPENINGS, not of stores. Openings are diffs against the previous release, so a mature operator that finished its Texas buildout before the window opened shows a large location count and no openings at all.
  • Dollar General's opening records arrive overwhelmingly as supplier batches rather than as dated store openings, so they are labelled index opening records and no quarterly pace is published from them.

  • 134 cities with index opening records in Texas.
  • Spellings are folded the same way the city URLs are built, so "St. Louis" and "St Louis" are one city rather than two. The most frequent raw spelling wins the label; "Spellings folded" is how many the index actually holds.
  • Cities are NOT linked: a city page is published only where at least three brands clear the floor, so a link from here would frequently point at a page that does not exist.

  • A state appears here only with at least 3 locations. States below the floor are in the index but have no page, so this total is smaller than the national count.
  • Locations are a presence snapshot at the Q3 2026 release. They are not openings and they are not a change.

  • Every figure in this block is NATIONAL. It is identical on all 48 of Dollar General's state pages and is not apportioned to Texas — dividing a national percentage into a state is not a fact about anything, which is why no Texas growth rate is published anywhere on this page.
  • Openings are individually dated records new to the index; net new is the difference between two count snapshots. The two answer different questions and rarely match.
  • Dollar General's opening records arrive overwhelmingly as supplier batches rather than as dated store openings, so they are labelled index opening records and no quarterly pace is published from them.

  • Steps are irregular, so a pace is openings divided by the step's real length and multiplied by 91 days rather than a raw quarterly count.
  • A batch-suspect share above half means the records were created on an index-wide vendor ingest day or bunched into a few days of the step; it impeaches the timing, not the existence of the stores.
  • National figures. Not apportioned to any state.
