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?

Back when I attended library science conferences regularly I would do Web searches for bookshops before I got on the plane and then my first act after waking up from my jetlag would be to go and visit one. Over time this got more and more difficult. In my last trip to Atlanta the only bookshops even vaguely in walking distance seemed, according to Google, to be the small bookshop at the uni/conf venue, and the national park shop at the MLK museum.
