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?

    They did specify elementary schools, which will have much less need for parking. The one in my neighborhood wasn’t bad, partly because staff also parked at the nearby park, so there wasn’t a single huge lot. Also, it’s an in-town school with a mostly neighborhood clientele so doesn’t need much room for drop offs. It was very nice walking my kids to school when they were little, and even now it’s nice having my polling place at the school so convenient
