It's just 2.6 miles south of our current place though. Grocery store: Publix is 2.3 miles or 1.7 miles, and we'd probably go there if needing something quick. There's a Walmart 1.1 miles but it's not a nice one that I'd want to go to too often. We usually go to another walmart for groceries- it's just a "neighborhood market" - no clothes, etc, it's 4.6 miles and worth it! Much quieter than the normal crowded crazy walmarts. Pharmacy: Publix (free metformin!) or CVS 2.3 miles Gym: There's one in our complex! But outside of that, Anytime Fitness is 2.4 miles Gas station: 1 mile! Mall: Millenia... 4.1 miles! Ikea: 4.3 miles. LOVE that. Target: 4.1 miles. Same shopping center as Ikea- the mall! Park: The one we WOULD go to is 4.2 miles. There's one 2.8 miles but it charges admission so we've never been. Airport: 19.5 miles, takes about a half hour usually. Fast food restaurant: Wendy's, .6 miles. I'm way too excited about this. Can't wait to move!!!!!!!!!!

Gym one block but the one i go to is six blocks away.. There's one park across the street and then a bigger one like a three minute walk. Target is about 20 blocks. Movie theater....8 blocks? There's like three drugstores within a handful of blocks. Getting to the airport is a pain in nyc but we live near three airports.

Both of those are too far! Haha. We go to the deli that is steps away and order online. Pharmacy: .2 miles, it's 2 blocks away Gym: .4 miles, it has bad reviews. We have a yoga studio and dance studio closer. I've been meaning to check out the yoga studio. Gas station: .2 mile for the gas station. There are 3 pretty close to us. Mall: Not many malls here, but the closest one is 3.6 miles, a few stops on the subway or a 10-15 minute drive. Ikea: 3.6 miles! It took us 12 minutes to drive there on Sunday. Target: One is in the mall above, but we have a closer one about 2 miles away. I usually order online and go pick up from there. Park: We're 4 short blocks away from Prospect Park. We're there almost every day on the weekend when it's nice out. Airport: We're 10 miles from JFK Fast food restaurant: We don't have many fast food restaurants in my neighborhood, there's a KFC about .3 miles away. The only other one is Subway. I love the restaurants in my neighborhood. They are mom and pop shops. mrs. bird on "How close is your nearest _______?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-close-is-your-nearest-_#post-1556272 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 11:50:09 +0000 mrs. bird 1556272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ i didn't google map all of these, but: grocery store: approx 1/4 mile, if i include my driveway and the grocery store parking lot, less if just the street distance :D pharmacy: in my backyard, we had a break in the bushes so we could walk between our parking lot and theirs, but it got closed in, so now i have to walk around the side, maybe 1/8 mile not sure which gym is closest to us gas station: i think this is the closest, but there are a bunch in different directions that are about the same, .4 miles (according to google earth) mall: not my favorite mall, but closest actual mall, 3 miles ikea: so sad :( 53 miles target: 4.2 miles park: the oldest park in the nation is 1.1 miles up the road, but there are two smaller ones closer airport: our local airport (only jetblue) is 3.9 miles, our closest big international airport is 46 miles fast food: .1 miles for a dominos or .2 miles for KFC/taco bell oliviaoblivia on "How close is your nearest _______?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-close-is-your-nearest-_#post-1556263 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 11:47:18 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1556263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Grocery store: 187 feet Pharmacy: 984 feet Gym: 1,150 feet Gas station: 0.6 miles Mall: 1.4 miles Ikea: 6.1 miles Target: 3 miles Park: 78 feet Airport: 4.8 miles Fast food restaurant: 623 feet LuLu Mom on "How close is your nearest _______?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-close-is-your-nearest-_#post-1556252 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 11:42:05 +0000 LuLu Mom 1556252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Grocery store: 0.9 miles Pharmacy: 0.9 miles (same area) Gym: 0.2 miles Gas station: 0.9 miles (grocery store gas station) Mall: 4.6 miles Ikea: 429 miles Target: 5.8 miles Park: 0.7 miles -- nature park, walkpath is close.
