Bohle Plains · 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.
Far fewer everyday amenities are within reach in Bohle Plains compared to the Queensland average. Most residents are car-dependent, as only 0.2% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed. This makes the area much less walkable than other parts of the state.

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

1.6
Car-dependent 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.

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.
