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?

      Yes, my “choice” to get the only house my family could afford close enough to where we work.

      How dare I choose to not be homeless!

        So you could only afford a shit shack, therefore it wasn’t your choice, yet somehow want to dictate how civilized places build infrastructure as if it was your choice? Do you need a dictionary to look up “hypocrisy”?

          Sorry, you want me to raise my family in a one-room hovel? Because I think “you didn’t raise your child living like a medieval peasant, therefore you had a choice” is being a little pedantic.

            No, I think you should shut the fuck up when people are talking about how cities should be organized when you don’t even live in one

              You don’t look like a mod to me. But feel free to flag my comments and see if they agree that I shouldn’t be allowed to say things in this community.

                  No one is forcing you to talk to someone who has the inability to think. If I thought that’s who I was talking to, I’d stop replying. I guess you enjoy this conversation.
