If the 5-mile area was guaranteed to have everything I needed forever, I wouldn't see a huge issue.
Right now, my commute is bit longer than 5 miles and I've often thought, "Man, wouldn't it be nice if it was shorter?"
Granted, the 5-mile radius would have to pretty neat overall, too. Overall, being able to walk anywhere -- without being stuck in a city -- would be nice.
