In the US, people who live in the NYC area are famous for measuring distance in terms of travel time, because with the heavy traffic, actual mileage is irrelevant.
I grew up there, then I moved to the central part of the country, where people talk in terms of miles. And there is plenty of open space, so they talk in terms of lots of miles.
When I looked again at maps of where I grew up, I was shocked to see how close together everything actually was -- in miles, not in minutes!

@DragonFruit I used to commute in from Southern Connecticut. It can take longer than that too. Much.

Are the residents mostly next generation of older families? Or do you still get people from other places relocating there?

@CookieCrumbs I actually moved here because this small town is right next to a "college town" - - all of my neighbors, on my dead end street, are "transplants" from other states (they either discovered this area because they went to college here or they work at the university. It's awesome. We have the small town feel without the small town mentality 😉 Plus we are an hour from a major city (not too bad)

5 blocks - but a town of 900 souls. Not large at all.
We were in a stop-n-go in the metro earlier this summer. I was kinda sorry I wasn't by myself. 1 - because they whine about it when we're as responsible for the traffic as any other car and 2 - when I lived in the city I would use my heavy traffic time to almost 'meditate' ... to ponder my issues. I worked long hours back then so I was rarely in the worst of it - arriving before the rush and going home after it.

Less than two miles but it’s a very small rural town and Main Street is on a state road with only a small public greenway

I live in the burbs. It’s about 8 minutes to the downtown section and about 22 minutes to the state’s city/capital.
