The classic example is libraries, but ideally I’m thinking of places you can have a conversation.

Interested in types of places (“libraries”) or specific places. Growing up we would wander around the local grocery store which was open 24 hours.

    most? citation needed. I’m 35 minutes from the nearest mall and I’m not even that rural. maybe you live on the east coast where things are more dense.

      Maybe it is a regional thing. I’m in Canada, so colder weather, almost every small town of 10,000+ has some form of “inside” mall.

        Oh that would make sense. I’m in the Midwestern US and mostly we just have strip malls and regular shops (and Walmart of course) in our town of 13K. Malls around here are only found in the larger towns of ~50K or more.
