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?

    I didn’t think of that. But anyway I’m anticar and antilawn so…

        Actually, I’m am ! because those are often overwrapped in useless plastic packaging and I try to do zero waste. I should try to by a bit more pro-thing rather than anti-. Would make my life happier.

      There are lawn alternatives that still need some forms of mowing. I have clover but mow it back a couple times a season.

        Mow your lawn with biofuel. Behold, the GOAT of Lawncare!

        Actually I hear contrary to popular opinion goats are fussy eaters, they just sample everything. Maybe go with the Sheep of Lawncare.

          I have an electric mower, personally, just an old (relatively) hand me down.

            You should upgrade to a sheep. You get free fertiliser, and when you’re done with it, you can eat it.

            Unless you’re vegan. Then you have to pay it a wage.

              This literally made me laugh out loud, that was a good one. ❤️
