Where is “cricket pitch”? That and pub would come top where I’m from.

Other than the primary school (~20 minutes) and the physical bank, which we barely have any left off in Norway, they're all within 15 minutes.

- Trondheim

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars 15 minute walk: Park, elementary school, bus stop, restaurant, gas station.

15-30 minutes: (I do walk sometime but usually bike): Grocery store, pharmacy, bank, barber.

I can easily bike, though not walk, to all of the rest except a university (which seems an absurd ask for a 15-minute neighborhood).

As someone who lives within 15 minutes ot a sports arena, i agree with not having one

A lot of stuff actually, but I'm pretty damn lucky to like in a place that's somewhat walkable and not a death sentence to ride a bike in.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars

This is such a city-centric question, that I doubt many rural folks bothered to answer it.

46 years ago, we moved from London, where these things were available, to a rural Vermont town where none of them are except an elementary school (well, I can step outside and be in the woods; better than a park).

It's beautiful, quiet, and cheaper than city life.

When we drive, we combine visits to many of these amenities in one trip.

We don't regret our decision a bit.

I can get to....more houses!

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars At the corner of my road, I have:
- Bakery (that took over the shops left and right because they kept winning awards)
- Pharmacy
- Post Office
- Women's Hairdresser
- Pizza, Chinese and Indian
- GP (although always booked out)
- Petrol Station chain which sells marked-up cornerstore stuff, don't get milk there it's 6 bucks

I can't get to any of those within a 15-minute walk from my house because I don't live in a city. I apologize for my lack of urban living.

Manure, swamp, ticks, Coyotes (after dark at least), deer, bear

Shopping mall is the only one on the list I can't walk to in 15 min or less. Love living in a walkable city, it's so rare in America these days.

I have 11, outside Boston, but where is the train station in the survey?

• movie theater is 25 minutes fast walk, although past my threshold so I’ve always driven.
• why the eff would I want to walk to a gas station? If they mean convenience store, I have two even closer
• I prefer NOT to be near the things with large crowds: hospital, university, arena, mall
• hospital question is out of date, should really distinguish hospital from urgent care or doctors office

I lived near Fenway Park once, and it was horrible. Do not recommend. The positive was I could goto a game after work and look for half price tickets after they start, but freely choose not to go if I didn’t get my price. But the noise, the mess, and the crowds making things just unuseable was not worth it.

An auto repair place is something that people don't think about. It's great being able to drop off your car and walk your ass home and then wait for them to call you.

@ajsadauskas in Umeå Sweden near campus I fall short of bank office whatever that is.. a movie theater and a gas station (it closed).

Such a list should have more focus on work places.. not only have "service", if we want o limit traffic :) Even though hospital and university has a lot of staff.

Office complex, hotels, branches of government etc.

@fuck_cars

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars I live in a rural village and can get to 11 of those within a 3 minute walk.

I'm moving to a large town soon where it'll go up to the full list.

I can't imagine having to drive everywhere.

Disappointingly I only have the grocery store within that distance, and it's a Walmart with no sidewalk for a stretch of that walk... But back to that list... Why would you need a gas station within walking distance? Am I walking with my car Flintstones style?
