The two have completely different business models.
Where I grew up there is a WalMart 45 minutes away in the "city", along with Target, Best Buy, etc. etc. You go there on the weekend for your afternoon shopping trip. It's a basically weekly event, and most everyone does it.
Dollar General is in town and you can go there after work if you need something.
Most people I know frequent both. The difference is that WalMart requires a much larger population to support, whereas Dollar General can get by with a few (1 - 5) thousand people.
