I think the point @wolfy42 was trying to make is, social isolating, staying home and only going out for necessities, you would expect to see less traffic and no crowding if most people are staying home. And that's pretty much how it is here, sparse traffic, most people in stores wearing masks and distancing. I've been out maybe three times a week, grocery shopping for me and an elderly neighbor, taking the same neighbor to doctor's appointments (screened at the clinic each time), picking up prescriptions for neighbor, hardware store for grass seed (maybe not a true necessity but all the current rules say lawn care is an essential), auto parts for brake fluid for neighbor's granddaughter's car, tire store for flat tire for my own car.

It probably depends on where you are and what's around. If you had a lot of recreational places that are now close, and only a handful (depending on the population) of stores, then those stores are probably going to be more crowded as less people could go to those other places. So they may spend more time getting supplies. Not to mention, I definitely use more stuff (like food and everything) the more I'm at home. So, going out to shop more often would make sense (Especially with a family). And some are trying to get projects around the house done. And need tools and supplies. So, it could be less in some places. Other places are going to definitely be more crowded, though.
