(As far as I know, current shopping centers are far from their homes, so a community shopping center would be important.) (1) (“As far as I know”) (A)
 
The reasons are quite clear. Firstly, it is reasonable for people to expect saving time from unnecessary things. For instance, the time I spend on the way to shopping, is more than an hour.

However on the other hand, if decide to order a taxi, it will cost money.  (On the other hand, if they decide to take a taxi, then it will be expensive.)
