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 think it’s because in some places, gas stations often have some small store for coffee, cigarettes, snacks and stuff like that.

      Yeah, but you can have those without being attached to a gas station. I guess if there wasn’t a better option listed it makes sense, but it’s like saying you want a shopping mall when what you actually want is a public bathroom — you don’t need one to have the other.
