Houston tx, sprawling urban hell. in a swamp. I'll only give a few
My most common doctors office: 16miles, 26 km My best friend: 30 miles, 50 km Bus stop: 2.5 km Grocery store: 6 miles, 10 km
Keep in mind this is a major metropolitan city with 4 million people, fairly hefty public transport, and is surrounded by other smaller cities. From center it's like 15-17 miles to the next edge. There's a smaller city inside of Houston called Bellaire lol.
Let's just say I have an office job and still manage to drive 35,000 miles a year.
Fun fact: the circumference of the earth is 24,000 miles!
I used to work as a service technician so I'd also have to travel more than the circumference of the earth every year. I feel your pain lol
