The score

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

The walkability score is 1.2, meaning the area is car-dependent. This is far below the Northern Territory figure of 5.1, and no homes here have a 15-minute-city walkshed.

1.2

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.

2.0

Lower than 78% 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.

0.0%

Lower than 99% 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.
