Try to walk to the next closest store... you don’t need to get all the way there:

How would you get there?

• Walking along the sidewalks and crosswalks available. Although, it would be mostly jaywalking and walking through grass to stay clear of the road.

Is there a sidewalk?

• In some parts.

Do you go through a parking lot?

• You could walk through part of the Walmart parking lot, but there is a sidewalk against the building.

How long will it take?

• It would take 15 minutes without using every crosswalk or sidewalk available. It would take closer to 25-30 minutes if someone used the crosswalks and sidewalks in the busier areas
