# Walkability — Borroloola

How much of daily life sits within a walk of home — a transparent 0–10 walkability score and the everyday destinations you can reach on foot: shops, public transport, schools, parks and health services, plus the streets and terrain in between.

Area: Borroloola (Indigenous Area)

No homes in Borroloola are within a five-minute walk of food and drink or public transport, which highlights the area's heavy reliance on cars. While some residents can reach schools or parks on foot, the walkability score is just 1.9, meaning the town is car-dependent. This is far below the Northern Territory figure.

Only 1% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, a figure far below the 61.8% seen across the Northern Territory. On average, there are only 2.4 amenity types within a 15-minute walk, which is also far below the territory's typical 5.0.

Access to basic needs is limited, with 0% of homes near public transport and only 41.8% within a 15-minute walk of health services. While 53.4% of homes can reach groceries or a school in 15 minutes, 100% of the population lives more than 30 minutes away from food and drink or general services.

The average terrain slope is 3.7%, which is about the same as the Northern Territory average. There are 14 street intersections per square kilometre.
