The score

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

The area is considered very walkable, with a score of 7.1 that is well above the state figure of 5.5. This is reflected in the fact that 95% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far above the South Australian average of 67%.

7.1

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. 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.

7.1

Higher than 78% 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.

95.0%

Higher than 78% of statistical area 2 (sa2) 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.

Streets & terrain

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

28.6

Higher than 86% of statistical area 2 (sa2) 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%

Lower than 51% 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.
