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.

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- hospital question is out of date, should really distinguish hospital from urgent care or doctors office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.
Really? I loved living across from fenway. Free concerts, watching all the idiots
riotcelebrate without having to participate. Two T stops within walking distance...I suppose I could understand, though, if you lived by Lansdowne.
The location was fantastic. When I wanted to see events was fantastic. It was one of the best places to live …. Except during games you aren’t going to. Trying to do normal life when tens of thousands of people are flooding every store and restaurant, every street and parking spot, every sidewalk and every T station, was just impossible. So many afternoons in the summer when I couldn’t do anything in my neighborhood: stay away or stay in
