What's your walk score?

Checked out the village where I live here in Essex and it only came out at 55. But we don't actually own a car. We walk, cycle or use public transport to get everywhere. Granted it's a small village with only a couple of shops (although the lists they gave were out of date and incomplete), but the bigger city of Colchester is only 5 minutes away on the train, 15 minutes on the bus with a dense city centre largely pedestrianised. And London is only an hour away.

6 because, OMG!, the nearest coffee house is 1.01 miles away.

66 for my previous address, yet I drive a whole lot less now because this neighborhood suits my lifestyle better. No more driving long distances every week for mountainbiking, fishing, etc.

It's a pretty weird system that puts "Freedom from Hunger" under Libraries and a storage facility under Clothing & Music.

74 out of 100.

Although, it's not safe. They didn't look at the crime in the area for the ranking.

Just last Sunday 2 guys were walking around the neighborhood, .10 miles from my place... one had a gun and they were robbing people. Right where I usually run, and at the store I go to, to buy food.

So it's only walkable if you have a concealed weapon to protect yourself.
