Milingimbi · 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.
Every single home in Milingimbi is within a 15-minute walk of basic services, though there are very few different types of amenities to visit. This makes the area somewhat walkable, as residents have immediate access to essential needs despite the small number of available facilities.

The overall walkability score and how much of daily life is a short walk away.
The walkability score is 4.5, which is somewhat walkable and a little below the Northern Territory figure of 5.1. However, 100% of homes have a 15-minute-city walkshed, which is far above the territory average of 61.8%.
4.5
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.

Higher than 57% 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.

Lower than 89% of urban centre areas.

3.4%
Lower than 70% 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.
