What’s Your Walk Score

July 26th, 2007 by Mr. Mai Tai

This site calculates your homes Walk Score . It looks at nearby restaurants, grocery stores, schools, parks and anything else important to people. The top score is 100. I entered my home address to find out my walkability. My walkability score=0. There are no services near my home. You need to drive everywhere. I already knew this but now I have proof positive.

    I got a 98. . I believe that walk score is cool, but nowadays more and more people prefer to drive cars. Homes are often located in an area where some establishments are easier to get to by car than on foot. I’ve recently found a type of service on drivescore.fizber.com which is called Drive Score. It shows a map of what establishments are in your neighborhood and calculates a Drive Score based on the number of places within a convenient driving distance. It doesn’t mean that drive score is better than walk score – they are equal and both necessary in the modern world!
