Walk Score
We can file this nicely into the ‘fuzzy math but kinda-sorta interesting’ category. Walk Score will figure out, on a scale of 0-100, just how walkable your ‘hood is. Using my house as a starting point, Tatnuck Sq in Worcester, MA scored a relatively grim 23. According to them, that means
Driving Only: Virtually no neighborhood destinations within walking range. You can walk from your house to your car!
Not to far off. But what’s most interesting is the expandable lists of nearby stuff, no surprises really, but I can see this sort of thing being a perfect deal maker/breaker for someone about to relocate.
If anyone paying attention feels like playing with this, I’d be interested in seeing how some of your neighborhoods rate in the comments.
