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?

@c_9 @CStamp @ajsadauskas @fuck_cars Thankfully, I don’t think people here have reached that state of mind. Lots of people would never get on a bus themselves, but I think there’s a general feeling that they are a good thing, just not good enough to actually use.

@CStamp @seanddotmedotuk @c_9 @ajsadauskas @fuck_cars measuring travel time should include parking at both ends of the trip when driving. And the level of concentration required to drive is more stressful – I would rather be able to read or knit or something (if the distance is not walkable) than have to pay attention to the road.
