And the amount of grocery stores i can reach within a 15 minutes walk must be at least 80, easily.
This town is still structured around small family businesses.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars I also don't get A Bar being so low. The bar is exactly the place I WANT people to be walking to instead of driving. Perhaps this is just a limitation of the polling method; these responses are mostly just gut reactions, not carefully considered positions.

8 of these if a Dollar general counts as a grocery store, otherwise 7.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars All of the above except university which would be an approx. 40 minutes walk or 10 minutes by bike.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars Practically all of them (I'm in Europe of course) although the hospital and the sports arena would require a brisk walk, more like 20+min. But there are dozens of doctors nearby.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars all but the university (that is an hour🚲 or 40 min 🚄+🚍).

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars No cinema @ 15 minutes and only a couple of medical centres (no full hospital), but everything else is right here.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars All but the hospital, university, arena, movie theatre, and bank. Notably all of those are still less than 45 minutes walk and understandable. Also all are under 20 minutes on my bike.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars who doesn't want a park 15mn walking from their home? SMH.

All but 4, I can get to. University, theatre, sports arena, and shopping mall.

Although those four are a 5-10 minute Uber

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars The only one I can walk from my house is a bar and a restaurant. I'm so happy.
(p.s. not American)

@ajsadauskas
I have all of that within a 350 meters radius from my home but a hospital, a shopping mall, a sports arena and a movie theater. Although i have 3 regular theaters within that same radius, and the university being that close is, admitedly, a bit of luck.
That's downtown Buenos Aires for you.
In 15 minutes i have multiple options for hospital and movie theaters, but still no luck for sports arenas and shopping malls. Although being far away from any shopping mall is actually for the better imo.

@fuck_cars

I’ve got all those things in my suburb of Melbourne! Well the hospital might be more like 20-25.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars I'm in Riverside South in Ottawa, so I can only walk fifteen minutes to a park, a bus stop, and an elementary school (which also, I believe, operates a day care). That's it. But if I expand that to half-an-hour, I can add a pharmacy and a post office in one direction and *maybe* a restaurant and a grocery store in another (I'm not sure if I'd get there in half an hour, though. Might be a bit longer).

And lord knows the bus stop in Ottawa, via OC Transpo is... a gamble.

@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars i think i only "miss".
- a bank
- a gas station

though i didn't look for them as i don't need them.

(I live slightly to the south of Amsterdam, NL).

Live in Rio, from this list i have almost everything in a 15 minute walk distance the only exceptions are

• shopping mall(30 min walking)
• public hospital (used to have but it closed, now the closest is 30 min walking)
• Movie theater(30 min walking)
• Sports arena(1h walking)
• Public University(2h walking)

Although i have a lot of services close, it is still a chore to go walking because a lot of the walking is uphill, i wish there was more public infrastructure to help people move up and down like trams and stuff like that, way back them the city uses to have trams everywhere, but now there's almost none.

What isn't on the list, but i absolutely didn't want around, was an neopentecostal church. Unfortunately, they are everywhere and super loud and disrespectful.

@ajsadauskas

In the south of Portsmouth, UK, all of the majority shoulds bar a gas station and a hospital, and I am *fine* with that. The hospital is 5 miles away.

And for the minority shoulds, I can get to a bar. And the others are just a bit further.
