Very 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.

Higher than 65% of statistical area 2 (sa2) areas.
