Area: Castlecrag (Suburb / Locality)

Almost no homes in Castlecrag are within a five-minute walk of groceries, creating a sharp contrast with the area's otherwise high access to parks and transport. While 76.2% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed—well above the New South Wales figure—the overall walkability score of 5.6 means the area is only somewhat walkable.
