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 lack of cultural sites is the only gap in an otherwise very walkable Edens Landing. Most residents have an easy walk to daily essentials, with 92.5% of homes sitting within a 15-minute walk of various amenities. This is far above the Queensland figure of 59.1%, making the area exceptionally convenient for those on foot.

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 6.7, which is well above the Queensland figure of 5.0. On average, people here have 6.9 different types of amenities within a 15-minute walk, compared to 4.8 across the state.
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.
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.
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 parks, where 100% of homes are within a 15-minute walk, while health services are the least accessible though still far above the state average. Nearly all homes are also within a short walk of public transport (97.9%), schools (95.2%), and groceries (91.7%).
Share of local homes within a 10-minute walk of a public-transport stop — bus, train, tram or ferry. Homes are counted as addresses (G-NAF), not people.
Share of local homes within a 15-minute walk of health services such as a GP, pharmacy or hospital. Homes are counted as addresses (G-NAF), not people.
Streets & terrain
Amenity density, how well the streets connect, and how hilly the walk is.
The terrain is steeper than most of the state, with a mean slope of 9.1%. There are 739 intersections per square kilometre, and the area provides 46.5 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is far above the Queensland figure of 13.4.
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.
Walkable street intersections per square kilometre. Denser, better-connected street grids give more direct routes on foot than winding, cul-de-sac layouts.
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.
