Wyoming · Statistical Area 2 (SA2)
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 44.5% of homes in Wyoming pass the 15-minute-city test, a figure far below the New South Wales average of 71.9%. While the area is considered somewhat walkable, it struggles to provide a full range of services within a short walk for most residents. This is most evident in the stark gap between easy access to parks and the difficulty of reaching basic groceries on foot.

5.0
Somewhat walkable of statistical area 2 (sa2) 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.
4.8
Lower than 56% of statistical area 2 (sa2) 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.

Walkable street intersections per square kilometre. Denser, better-connected street grids give more direct routes on foot than winding, cul-de-sac layouts.
11.2%
Higher than 93% of statistical area 2 (sa2) 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.
