Yesterday, Target announced that it would be closing 11 underperforming stores by Feb. 2015, which only represents a small fraction of the retailer’s 1,800 stores in the U.S. But that brings this year’s total number of Target closures to 19, nearly five times the number of stores shuttered the previous year.

In fact, Target had only closed a total of 9 stores during the two previous years, while also opening more than 40 locations during that same period of time.

“The decision to close a Target store is not made lightly,” a Target rep tells the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. “We typically decide to close a store after careful consideration of the long-term financial performance of a particular location. In most cases, a store is closed as a result of seeing several years of decreasing profitability.”

The company says that employees at affected stores will be offered jobs at other stores and those who don’t accept the transfer will be giving severance packages.

Here is the complete list of the 11 stores, in 8 states, set to close on Feb. 1:
