The score

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.

The walkability score for the area is 3.9, placing it in the mostly car-dependent category. This is well below the Western Australia average of 5.4, with typical homes having access to far fewer amenity types within a 15-minute walk than the state average.

3.9

Mostly car-dependent of indigenous location areas.

A 0–10 score for how much of daily life sits within an easy walk of the average home — weighing how close groceries, public transport, cafés, parks, health services, schools, culture and everyday services are, and how many of each. Walking times are measured on an elevation-aware pedestrian network, so hills count against reach. The methodology page describes how the score is put together.

3.3

Lower than 64% of indigenous location areas.

How many of the eight everyday amenity types — groceries, food & drink, health, schools, parks, culture, everyday services and public transport — the average home can reach on foot within 15 minutes, out of 8.

30.3%

Lower than 66% of indigenous location areas.

Share of local homes that can reach at least five of the eight everyday amenity types within a 15-minute walk — the "15-minute city" test. Homes are counted as addresses (G-NAF), not people.

What's in walking distance

How many homes can walk to groceries, transport, schools, parks and health services.

Almost all homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park (97.2%) or public transport (91.2%), both of which are well above state figures. In contrast, access to health services is nonexistent, and far fewer homes are within walking distance of schools or groceries compared to the rest of the state.

Streets & terrain

Amenity density, how well the streets connect, and how hilly the walk is.

The terrain has a mean slope of 7.2%, which is a little above the Western Australia average of 5.7%. There are 41 street intersections per square kilometre.

7.2%

Higher than 85% of indigenous location areas.

Average terrain slope across the area, as a percent grade. Steeper ground shortens how far people will walk; it is already folded into the walkability score through the elevation-aware pedestrian network, and is shown here on its own for context.
