Like XKCD said, every map is basically a population map: https://xkcd.com/1138/

reminds me of when i see articles in the news in my country sometimes, with headlines like : "Man found with drugs within 500 meters of school"

There are schools everywhere, usually in places where there are lots of other amenities like shops, and doctors, and pubs.

  • Yes, when there are schools every few miles, it's very likely that any given thing will end up within range of a school.
