Walkability in Manna Hill

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.

Almost every home in Manna Hill is within a 15-minute walk of a local amenity, but the variety of services is limited. While 94.7% of residents can easily reach groceries or a park, there is no local access to schools, health services, or public transport. This creates a pocket where basic needs are walkable, but essential services require a car.

The score

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

The area is considered somewhat walkable with a score of 4.4, which is a little below the South Australian figure of 5.5. While the number of amenity types within a 15-minute walk is a little below the state average, far more homes here have a 15-minute-city walkshed compared to the state average.

4.4

Somewhat 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.

4.7

Higher than 81% 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.

94.7%

Higher than 97% 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.

Streets & terrain

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

Manna Hill has 1,250 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, a figure far above the state average. The terrain slope is 3.6%, which is about the same as across South Australia, and there is 1 intersection per square kilometre.

1,250.0

Higher than 99% 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.

3.6%

Lower than 78% 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.
