What is essential for you to have nearby? I can think of groceries, fresh produce, haircut/salon, a couple restaurants, schools, etc. Those are the obvious ones. What else are you looking for, such as a flower shop?

    Taking a look at most city maps I’m surprised how many areas, even older suburbs, fit the definition of 15 min cities already.

    The issue is breaking the monopoly of the car on planning and actually making them bike and pedestrian friendly.

    I encourage everyone to figure out the 15 minute bike radius around themselves and marvel at just how complete a life one can live in it.
