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?

    Electric lawn mowers are better, imho. Fewer parts to break/maintain. Granted, the cable isn’t ideal, but it’s really not a big deal, you just mow out front where you plug is in two sections.

      That’s fine for a bland, flat, empty US suburban section. For complex weedeating jobs it’s not very practical.

      @blindsight @biddy Battery opperated is plenty good for most situations too. Up to the point where a ride on is probably the right choice, but I presume battery ride ons are/will be a thing.
