Lol. Right now, tho I'm remembering the way my fam and my people growing up called these stores. It was by perceived ethnicity of owners.

I mean, I just learned about the existence of this word 20 min ago. Go-to nomenclature for me is liquor store.

Absolutely correct. In 61 years, I've only once heard someone call a corner store a bodega ... that person was from NYC, not SoCal.

Liquor store, corner store, or market. I learned the word "bodega" from books about NYC.

As a life-long Californian, it took me a long damn while before I figured out what NYers were talking about when they said "bodega."
