Currabubula · Suburb / Locality
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 slope of 6.9% is about the same as the New South Wales figure, but Currabubula remains mostly car-dependent. Only 42.5% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far below the state average. This makes it difficult for many residents to reach daily needs on foot.

2.9
Mostly car-dependent of suburb / locality 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.
