List of Outlet Malls, USA; pt. 1

Find the USA's biggest and best factory outlet malls in this directory!

Do you love outlet shopping?

It's fun...and it saves money, too!

Outlet malls are generally built at the edge of metropolitan areas (or even in the countryside)...which is meant to keep the cheaper outlet centers from being a direct competition to local malls. As a result, consumers generally have to spend their valuable free time and spend extra money on gas to reach them. When they arrive, they want to find a tip-top outlet mall waiting for them in return for their sacrifices!

The best outlet malls can meet that challenge! A good, modern outlet center will have a wide range of choices for consumers, with stores featuring a variety of clothing and accessory styles that will interest all members of the family. The mall's architecture will be pleasant and up-to-date with amenities such as ample free parking, clean restrooms and creature comforts such as a food court and/or vending machines. Some malls add extra touches---children's playgrounds, lush landscaping, or discount coupons available in the mall office. All of these extra amenities tell a customer that the mall values your business and appreciates your patronage.

To make this list of best USA outlet malls, several requirements had to be met. For one thing, the mall must have a website the consumer may browse before spending time driving to that destination. It's unbelievable that some outlet malls still don't have websites, but it's true...particularly the smaller ones.

The second requirement is that the outlet mall must have at least 30 stores, because it's simply not cost-effective for consumers to drive a distance only to discover that their destination doesn't have enough choices to make a one-stop shopping trip. (Some of these malls have many more than 30 stores.) There's nothing wrong with small outlet malls...if you happen to live near one and can enjoy its services without making a sacrifice. But, the best outlets are destinations--places where people might drive from miles around because the mall provides shopping opportunities unavailable elsewhere.

The rest of this page consists of the list of biggest and best Outlet Malls in the USA, arranged in alphabetical order by the names of the states in which they're located. Happy shopping!
