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?

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars Everything except a university. We don’t have one in my town. And the sports stadium is either a football (AFL) field, or a horse trots course. And there really aren’t any busses except for the school busses. I do like country town living <3
@Jakra @fuck_cars Very good point.
I took “sports arena” to mean a stadium where professional sports are played. (So the MCG/SCG/Adelaide Oval/Optus Stadium/Gabba/Olympic Park/etc.)
If you mean local community cricket/Aussie rules/soccer/rugby ground then there’s one within walking distance of my house.
@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars I figured that’s what they meant too, but I definitely don’t have one of those, that’s more like a couple of hundred kilometres!
