The score

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.

The area is rated as very walkable with a score of 6.1, which is about the same as the New South Wales figure. Around 83.8% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, a result far above the state average of 71.9%.

6.1

Very walkable 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.

6.2

Higher than 89% of suburb / locality areas.

How many of the eight everyday amenity types — groceries, food & drink, health, schools, parks, culture, everyday services and public transport — the average home can reach on foot within 15 minutes, out of 8.

83.8%

Higher than 91% of suburb / locality 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.

What's in walking distance

How many homes can walk to groceries, transport, schools, parks and health services.

Access to daily needs is excellent, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park and 97.3% near a school, both far above state levels. Groceries and public transport are also well within reach for most, while health services are the hardest to reach, though still well above the state average at 65.6%.

Streets & terrain

Amenity density, how well the streets connect, and how hilly the walk is.

The local terrain is relatively flat with a mean slope of 6.1%, about the same as the state average. There are 304 intersections per square kilometre, but the number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents is far below the New South Wales figure.

8.9

Lower than 61% of suburb / locality 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.

6.1%

Higher than 55% of suburb / locality 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.
