Walkability in 2358, NSW

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.

A walkability score of 3.9 makes postcode 2358 mostly car-dependent, which is well below the New South Wales figure of 6.2. Fewer than half of all homes here have the same level of local amenities within a 15-minute walk as those in the rest of the state. This makes it much harder for residents to get around on foot compared to other areas in New South Wales.

The score

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

The area is mostly car-dependent, with a walkability score that is well below the state average. Only 47.9% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 71.9%.

3.9

Mostly 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.

4.1

Higher than 54% 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.

47.9%

Higher than 51% 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.

Access to basics is far below state levels, with only 45% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and 50.5% near public transport. While some residents live very close to services, 35% of homes are more than 30 minutes away from the nearest grocery store or health service.

Streets & terrain

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

The terrain is a little flatter than the state average, with a mean slope of 5.3%. There are 19.9 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is well above the New South Wales figure, though street connectivity is 0.

19.9

Higher than 56% 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.

5.3%

Higher than 54% 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.
