More for folks from walkable environments, my question is: would you walk an hour and 15 minutes to go to say, the library? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Is that amount of time common to walk in places in the world where cars don't dictate the layout of the community?

Im going to be making this walk tomorrow, no worries, I'm just curious if its normal in other places. Maps says its 1hour15minues for 2.3miles or 3.7Km.

Very jealous. My favorite grocer is 2.5 miles away and I have to get on a highway to get there. That's the most direct route. Drives me mad.

I used to do 40 minutes walking home from work, it wasn't so bad once I was used to it. One time a buddy dropped me off/picked me up from work on a quad. We took the (defunct) railroad tracks. It was very fun.
