What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?
A recent YouGov survey asked Americans what they think they should be able to get to within a 15-minute walk of their house.
Of these choices, I can currently walk to all of them from my apartment, aside from a university (no biggie, I’m not currently studying, although there is a Tafe within walking distance), a hospital, and a sports arena.
How many can you get to with a 15 minute walk from your house?

Gas stations are commonly convience stores. Folks walk there to buy snacks and drinks. And drugs.

Groceries stores are usual huge. If you just want a single item, could still be 10+ minutes from getting to the edge of the parking lot to getting back to the edge of the parking lot with that one item. With a convenience store, its like 3 minutes.
Personally, I still rather go to the grocery store since they’re generally a lot cheaper and have more options.
