Edrom · 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.
Only parks are within walking distance for some residents in Edrom, while every other essential service is missing. This makes the area car-dependent, with no homes having a 15-minute-city walkshed, a figure far below the New South Wales average of 71.9%.

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.
