within a 5-10 minute walk, I have several buses and train lines, 2 grocery stores, a bunch of restaurants, bars, cafes, and tons of shopping, pharmacies, and a cannabis dispensary, 6 parks, 3 of which have community centers on site, the 3 that don't are on the lakefront with water access.
I don't get the appeal of living so remotely from everything, in a giant housing area without even sidewalks. It's really not that loud living closer to shops and what not. The convenience more than makes up for any hassle.
