What's your walk score?

Ooh, my neighborhood got a 100!! I love living smack dab in the middle of the East Side of Milwaukee. Beer, Food, Laundry and Shopping all a step outside of my door. (oh and school is right here too).

This site is not up to date - it doesn't list the grocery store that is within walking distance of my house that opened earlier this year. Also it leaves out most of the restaurants, bars and shops that are in the same area as the grocery store.

88/100 - better than I actually expected!

Woot! 78, and they're missing plenty of restaurants and bars from their list. Compare that to the 23 of my old address One of the main things that drew me to the new place were a)sidewalks and b)plenty of things within walking distance. I'm so much happier there!

75. I'll take it, but I kinda thought it would be higher. Everything I need is within walking distance, including the beach. Well, we could use an Indian restaurant. Okay, that's worth 25 points.

Where I live right now is a 9. However, we have a nice running and biking trail right out side my door, and I can go out and get 100+ miles on my bike with no problem. However, none of those routes really take you anywhere. Closest convience store is 1.5mi, closest restaurant (and only 1) is 1mi. Everything else is farther away.

So I punched in some of my old addresses, and where other places I have lived were 8 (with a grocery store only 3miles away - everything else farther), 28 (bad neighborhood - would never walk even around my apartment complex), and for where I grew up, a big whopping zero. No suprise there, as it's 3mi to a convience store, and the next closest thing is is a couple of miles further. But heck, wasn't OKC rated as having the most dependence on cars in the entire nation with common 80mi round trips to work? I would believe it.
