Why sheet music not in my area the East end of the city

I live in the East part of my city. On Friday, me and one of my friends who happens to be a pianist had to drive all the way to the West part of the city, almost an hour's drive to get some sheet music from a store that sells all types, popular and sacred. Now I was asking her as we went on our way, why isn't there a store closer to where I lived? I mean just because our city is now affiliated, it is Winnipeg, Manitoba, by the way, do they have to put all the music stores on the West end as if we in the Eastern have absolutely no musical and singing talent whatsoever? I mean I can order it online, but I do not know what the sheet music looks like, whether I can sing it, or whether my friend can play it? Do you have the same problem in your city? I can understand small towns having that problem but cities?
