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?

    It’s generally called a “convenience store” whether or not it’s on a gas station.

    It’s a dying type of business in Europe, but they still thrive in big cities. I wish we had Japanese style convenience stores here.

      I feel like it’s pretty rare to see them not attached to gas stations, at least in America.
