Angaston · Urban Centre
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.
About 60.5% of homes in Angaston pass the 15-minute-city test, a result well below the South Australian figure. This means most residents can reach several key services on foot, though the town's overall walkability is just somewhat walkable. While many can walk to a doctor or school, a smaller share can easily reach a park.

Somewhat walkable of urban centre 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.
