Port Victoria · 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.
No homes in Port Victoria pass the 15-minute-city test, meaning no one can reach five different amenity types on foot. This makes the area mostly car-dependent, with a walkability score of 2.4 which is far below the South Australian figure of 5.5.

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.
The area is mostly car-dependent with a walkability score of 2.4. This is far below the state figure, and the number of amenity types within a 15-minute walk is also far below South Australia.
2.4
Mostly car-dependent 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.
2.6
Lower than 75% of urban centre 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.
0.0%
Lower than 99% of urban centre 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.

Amenity density, how well the streets connect, and how hilly the walk is.
The terrain slope is 3.8%, which is about the same as the South Australian average. There are 45 intersections per square kilometre, and the number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents is about the same as the state figure.
15.6
Lower than 58% of urban centre 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.
45
Higher than 67% of urban centre areas.
Walkable street intersections per square kilometre. Denser, better-connected street grids give more direct routes on foot than winding, cul-de-sac layouts.
3.8%
Lower than 63% of urban centre 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.
