The score

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

The walkability score for Trevallyn is 5.6, which is considered somewhat walkable and a little above the Tasmanian figure of 4.7. On average, residents have a little more variety in nearby amenities than others in the state, with about 5.4 different types within a 15-minute walk.

5.6

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.

5.4

Higher than 53% 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.

64.5%

Lower than 51% 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.

Access to essentials is strong, with 99.9% of homes within 15 minutes of a park and 93.4% near public transport, both far above state figures. While 63.4% can walk to groceries and 51% to health services, these are the hardest to reach; only 12% of homes are within a 5-minute walk of a shop or clinic.

Streets & terrain

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

Steepness is a major feature here, as the mean terrain slope is 16.2%, which is well above the state average of 8.8%. There are 91 street intersections per square kilometre, and the number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents is about the same as the Tasmanian figure.

21.1

Higher than 75% 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.

16.2%

Higher than 99% 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.
