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.
Only 1.6% of homes in postcode 0822 are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, a gap far below the Northern Territory average. This area is largely car-dependent, with very few homes located near a variety of shops or services. For most residents, a 15-minute walk simply does not provide access to essential daily needs.

1.1
Car-dependent of postcode 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.
