The thing is, what attracts people to premium outlets is the low price.
So these outlets also need to reduce cost by opening in a place where rental is cheap. You also wouldn't see them in cities, (apart from cheap rental) to avoid cannibalising sales of latest products. I remember in California, they have quite a sizable factory outlet a few hours from San Francisco, literally in the middle of nowhere.
