Everyday life in both places is car-dependent, as neither area has any homes within a 15-minute walk of a park, school, health services or groceries. This lack of local amenities is a shared trait, and both areas have a walkability score that identifies them as car-dependent. While Wittenoom has a slightly higher number of amenity types within a 15-minute walk, the gap between the two remains very small.
