The score

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

Only 42.6% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 71.9%. This is reflected in the overall score of 4.6, which is well below the state average of 6.2.

4.6

Somewhat walkable 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.

4.2

Higher than 56% of postcode 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.

42.6%

Lower than 55% of postcode 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.

Most residents are well placed for nature and travel, with 95.2% within a 15-minute walk of a park and 92.4% near public transport. However, access to essentials is much lower; only 45.7% can walk to groceries and a tiny 0.1% can reach health services within 15 minutes.

Streets & terrain

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

There are 93 intersections per square kilometre and a mean terrain slope of 8.2%, which is a little above the state average. Despite the terrain, the area has 20 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is well above the New South Wales figure of 14.7.

20.0

Higher than 57% of postcode 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.

8.2%

Higher than 83% of postcode 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.
