Walmart Closed These 11 Stores (Is Yours One of Them?)

For many shoppers, it's vital to save money on Walmart essentials. But in some places, customers no longer have as many Walmart stores to shop at as they did previously.

With the popularity of online shopping, many retailers are pulling back on brick-and-mortar locations, and that includes Walmart. After nearly two dozen closures in 2023, the retail giant announced more store closures the following year. 

Here are 11 locations you won't be able to shop in 2025. 

Closed locations:

• San Diego (2121 Imperial Ave.)
• El Cajon, California (605 Fletcher Pkwy)
• West Covina, California (2753 E. Eastland Center Drive)
•  Granite Bay, California (4080 Douglas Blvd.)
• Fremont, California (40580 Albrae St.)

Walmart closed two stores on February 9, 2024, one in San Diego and another in El Cajon, due to an inability to make a lease agreement with the property managers, according to the retailer's statement.

The West Covina location closed on March 29 last year, and the Granite Bay location closed on April 12, 2024. These locations did not perform well and did not meet financial expectations. The location in Fremont closed on May 24.

Closed location: 10400 E Colfax Ave.

June 7, 2024 saw the closure of this neighborhood market location in Aurora due to financial challenges. 

Shoppers can still visit Aurora's seven other locations to save money on essentials. 

Closed locations: 

• Dunwoody, Georgia (4725 Ashford Dunwoody Rd.)
• Marietta, Georgia (3101 Roswell Rd.)

The metro Atlanta area now has two fewer Walmart locations after both stores closed on July 12, 2024.

Closed location: 3579 S. High St

Walmart shut its doors to its Columbus location due to financial troubles. This location said its final goodbyes two days after Valentine's Day in 2024. 

Closed location: 1238 Putty Hill Avenue

The town of Towson said farewell to its location on April 5 of last year. The reason for its closure was due to not meeting financial expectations.

Closed location: 7025 W. Main Street

Milwaukee's neighborhood market location shut its doors on May 17, 2024, due to low performance. 

Retailers across the country are tightening their belts through layoffs and store closures as they prepare to weather what many believe to be a coming recession.

If you live in one of these communities, your grocery bills might be a bit higher now. Taking a part-time job, developing a side hustle, or finding another way to make extra money might be your best option for staying ahead of these higher costs.

Walmart may cut costs in the short term, but there could be long-term implications for communities that might struggle to find alternatives to the cheap food, medicine, and household supplies that these shuttered Walmarts leave behind.
