Stuart Park · 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.
A slightly steeper slope than other parts of the Northern Territory defines the landscape of Stuart Park, though it remains very walkable. Every single home is within a 15-minute walk of a park and public transport. While grocery stores are mostly nearby, health services are much harder to reach on foot.

6.3
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.
