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

Mungallala is car-dependent, with a walkability score of 1.9, far below the state average of 5.0. Only 51.5% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is well below the Queensland figure of 59.1%.

1.9

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. 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.

2.6

Higher than 70% 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.

51.5%

Higher than 80% 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 very limited, as no homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or public transport. While 51.5% of homes are near a school or park, 100% of residents live more than 30 minutes away from the nearest health clinic or shop.

Streets & terrain

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

58.8

Higher than 85% 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.

2.6%

Lower than 94% 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.
