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?

@Jakra @fuck_cars @Fitz There was a “dry area” law that prevented licensed premises opening in a number of Melbourne’s inner-eastern suburbs (around Camberwell).
It was on the books from when teetotaling was all the rage a century ago (note Australia didn’t have US-style prohibition laws) until 2022.
