Nordstrom, and perhaps Von Maur and Lord & Taylor, are upper-middle end. Macy's and Dillard's are middle-end. JCPenney, Sears, and Kohls are lower-middle end. Target, Kmart, and Walmart, if considering a traditional department store, are low-end. The hiearchy from high-end to low-end correlates with the number of locations each brand of store has.
