The score

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

The walkability score is 2.8, which means the area is mostly car-dependent. This is far below the state's figure of 5.5.

2.8

Mostly car-dependent of council (lga) 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.

3.2

Lower than 72% of council (lga) 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.

39.4%

Lower than 66% of council (lga) 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.

Parks are the most accessible amenity, with 49.9% of homes within a 15-minute walk, but groceries and health services are the hardest to reach, with only about 26% of homes nearby. This is far below the state's figures for both parks and shopping.

Streets & terrain

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

The area has a mean terrain slope of 2.9%, which is a little below the South Australian figure of 4.6%. There are 0 intersections per square kilometre, though there are 86.3 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is far above the state figure of 16.3.

86.3

Higher than 97% of council (lga) areas.

Walkable amenities — shops, cafés, parks, health services, schools, cultural and community places, everyday services and public-transport stops — per 1,000 residents. Measures how much is around, apart from how far it is to walk there.

2.9%

Lower than 86% of council (lga) 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.
