Distances are measured in a straight line from the nearest part of the street. Places may be near different sections. Areas use an interior point, not an entrance. These are source records, not unique venues or walking distances. Activity is not corroborated: records come from the September 2026 map snapshot, and an object's edit date does not confirm that a venue operates.
