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?

    If kids could walk to school without getting ran over, then schools wouldn’t need as much parking space. In Finland, where I’m from, 7 year-olds can walk to school without getting crushed by a car. And when a plenty of students are able to get to school without cars, then schools don’t need nearly as much parking space.
