The score

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

About 88% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far above the Northern Territory figure of 61.8%. On average, residents have 5.4 amenity types within a 15-minute walk, slightly more than the 5.0 seen across the territory.

5.6

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.

5.4

Higher than 85% 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.

88.3%

Higher than 93% 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.

Every single home is within a 15-minute walk of a school, park and public transport, far exceeding territory trends. However, access to other services is much lower; only 32.6% can walk to groceries and no one can walk to health services, which is far below the national and state figures.

Streets & terrain

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

The terrain is mostly flat with a 3% average slope, and there are 101 street intersections per square kilometre. Despite the easy walking, there are only 9.2 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is far below the Northern Territory figure of 19.0.

9.2

Lower than 61% 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.

3.0%

Lower than 88% 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.
