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?

    Do the 32 percent not know what a bus stop is?? Why would you want a bus stop farther than 15 minutes away???

      I bet the mentality is: “why would i want to have a bus stop when I always use my car”.

      As opposed to “it would have beed nice to have a bus stop so that I don’t need to use my car”

      It keeps the kind of people who use a bus far away from you.

      I guess, I’m not American, buses are fine here.
