The score

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

The area is considered very walkable with a score of 6.2, which is a little above the Queensland figure of 5.0. Residents can typically access about 6 different types of amenities within a 15-minute walk, compared to 4.8 across the state.

6.2

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.

78.5%

Higher than 88% 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 essentials is far above the state average, especially for public transport (97.6% of homes) and parks (99.8%). While most people can easily reach a school or the shops, health services are the least accessible amenity, though still far above the Queensland average at 64.3%.

Streets & terrain

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

The local terrain slope is about the same as the Queensland average at 6.3%. There are 74 street intersections per square kilometre and 13.6 walkable amenities for every 1,000 residents, which is about the same as the state figure.

13.6

Higher than 50% 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.

6.3%

Higher than 56% 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.
