To Americans: How far apart is everything in the US?
  • Depends on the part of dc- big chunks of it have $5 million homes for miles. Every major city has slummy areas, but dc for the most part is expensive as shit and gentrified combined with endless government buildings. Also has one of the best museums in the world with over a dozen massive buildings, all free.

    You might be thinking of Baltimore :P

  • To Americans: How far apart is everything in the US?
  • Depends on the state. There are places where stores are 2+ hours away by car.

    In my area, it falls into 2 categories-

    1. Things are 20-30 min by car and are 20-30 miles away (highway)
    2. Things are 20-30 min by car and are 3-5 miles away.

    This is totally based on traffic and roads- I’m in the woods outside Washington DC, so while the density is high in the cities, I’m 15 min from literally everything minimum (by car). I couldn’t walk or bike to a store, I’m 30ish min from work combination highway and local roads.

    If you live in a city, you might live literally on top of stores in the same building. Shopping centers with above condos and apartments are becoming a popular replacement for shopping malls in my area, but are very very expensive (often over $1million) for a townhouse in one of these shopping “communities”.

    I buy nearly everything online and have it delivered, most stuff (groceries, goods, electronics, housewares, etc) come between 0-3 days.
