The score

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

The walkability score is 6.0, which is described as very walkable and about the same as the New South Wales figure of 6.2. Around 69.5% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, slightly below the state average.

6.0

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.

5.8

Higher than 87% 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.

69.5%

Higher than 84% 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 is strongest for public transport, with 98.8% of homes within a 10-minute walk, far above the state average. Residents also enjoy easy access to parks and schools, though far fewer homes are within a 15-minute walk of cultural spots.

Streets & terrain

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

5.3

Lower than 70% 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.

6.4%

Higher than 58% 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.
