[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why you are doing it as a door to door measure rather than from your front door to the top escalator. You can't control whether someone walks down the escalators or stands, waits forever for the awful metro elevators, etc. Measure it on a map as distance between your house and metro and that is good enough. I consider 20 minutes walkable but it's my outer limit for a daily commuting walk given the crap weather we get here. I did it for years in another city and it was fine. Not fun when raining or hot but doable. From my current house it's a 10-minute walk and it's great. We do it daily rain or shine with 2 kids, 1 of whom walks, the other is in a stroller. A ton of people from my neighborhood walk to metro and many of them have longer walks than we do as they're coming from further in to the neighborhood.[/quote]
