# Walkability — Fingal

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.

Area: Fingal (Urban Centre)

Not a single home in Fingal (L) meets the 15-minute-city test, as no household is within a short walk of five or more key amenities. This makes the area mostly car-dependent, with a walkability score of 2.8, which is far below the Tasmanian figure of 4.7.

A typical 15-minute walk from home in Fingal (L) reaches only 3.2 amenity types, well below the 4.5 found across Tasmania. This lack of local options is reflected in the area's low walkability score of 2.8.

While 80.5% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of a park, others are far less accessible; no homes are within that distance of a school, grocery store, or health service. Public transport is closer for some, with 65.5% of homes within a 10-minute walk, though this is still well below the state average.

The terrain in Fingal (L) is a little flatter than the state average, with a mean slope of 5.9%. There are 7 intersections per square kilometre, and the area provides 20 walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, which is about the same as the Tasmanian figure.
