    Imo all daily/frequent use things should be max 15-20 minutes away on foot in an ideal design. I was extremely depressed when I was forced to live in a suburban nightmare with all paths being by busy roads (so unbreathable air) with the closest shop being 40 minutes away.

      Careful. You start talking about things being 15 minutes away and conservative whackos will claim you’re trying to put them in an open air prison.
