Speak for your rural or suburban self. I’m in North America, kids school is 420m from home.

Speak for your dense population area self. 418m gets me to the end of my rural driveway. Kids school is 8.3 miles (13.4km).

to go even further, most people don't live in a village. Population of NYC is 8.3 million, population of Wyoming is 581k.
