Walkability in Hilbert

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 modest slope of 5.4% defines the terrain in Hilbert, where a walkability score of 3.3 means the area is mostly car-dependent. While almost everyone can reach public transport or a park on foot, very few residents can walk to shops or health services.

Share of homes (G-NAF addresses) in Hilbert by walking time to the nearest amenity of each type, on an elevation-aware pedestrian network. How we calculate this →

The score

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

Only 16.3% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far below the Western Australian figure of 64.0%. The area is mostly car-dependent, with an average of just 2.9 amenity types within a 15-minute walk.

3.3

Mostly 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.

2.9

Higher than 72% 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.

16.3%

Higher than 70% 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 split between transit and services; 94.6% of homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, but 0% are within 15 minutes of health services. While 91.7% of residents can walk to a park, only 17.7% are within 15 minutes of groceries.

Streets & terrain

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

The area has 117 intersections per square kilometre. There are 11.0 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is well below the state figure of 16.6.

11.0

Lower than 56% 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.

5.4%

Lower than 53% 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.
