These numbers can’t be used to make the assessment you’re making. You need to know the relative proportion of pedestrians vs. drivers. If there are 10x pedestrians then the 6% increase would be far more people. Also, pedestrians and drivers don’t spend money in the same proportions or ways.
I’m guessing there is data on small business activity we could look at, although you would need to compare to neighboring districts to account for a cooling economy.
