The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.
The area is rated as very walkable, with 7.4 amenity types within a 15-minute walk—well above the 5.0 seen across the Northern Territory. This helps explain why 100% of homes here have a 15-minute-city walkshed, far above the territory's 61.8%.
7.9
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.
