The score

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

The walkability score for Schubert is 2.8, which is far below the South Australian figure of 5.5. This confirms the area is mostly car-dependent, with only 31.3% of homes having a 15-minute-city walkshed.

2.8

Mostly car-dependent of state electorate 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

Lower than 90% of state electorate 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.

31.3%

Lower than 90% of state electorate 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 limited, with health services being the hardest to reach; only 14.1% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of a doctor. Parks are the most accessible amenity, yet 30% of residents still live more than 30 minutes away from one.

Streets & terrain

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

The average terrain slope is 5.5%, which is about the same as the rest of South Australia. There are 3 intersections per square kilometre and 15.3 walkable amenities for every 1,000 residents.

15.3

Higher than 57% of state electorate 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.

5.5%

Higher than 54% of state electorate 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.
