Robina · Sub-region (SA3)
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.
Almost every home in Robina is within a short walk of a park or transport, though some residents still find it hard to reach basic services on foot. The area is very walkable, with 82.7% of homes fitting the 15-minute-city model, which is far above the Queensland figure of 59.1%. This makes it a convenient place for those preferring to walk over drive.

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.
The area's walkability score is 6.3, which is considered very walkable and well above the state average of 5.0. This is supported by the fact that residents have access to about 6.1 different amenity types within a 15-minute walk, compared to 4.8 across Queensland.
6.3
Very walkable of sub-region (sa3) 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.
6.1
Higher than 67% of sub-region (sa3) areas.

82.7%
Higher than 71% of sub-region (sa3) 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.
How many homes can walk to groceries, transport, schools, parks and health services.
Public transport and parks are the easiest to reach, with 91.7% of homes near a stop and 97.7% near a park—both far above state levels. While most people can walk to schools or groceries, access to health services is the weakest link, though it remains far above the Queensland average at 65.2%.

12.1
Lower than 76% of sub-region (sa3) 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.
175
Higher than 76% of sub-region (sa3) areas.
Walkable street intersections per square kilometre. Denser, better-connected street grids give more direct routes on foot than winding, cul-de-sac layouts.
5.6%
Higher than 52% of sub-region (sa3) 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.
