What is Walk Score?"We help people find houses and apartments in walkable neighborhoods. Walk Score shows you a map of what's nearby and calculates a Walk Score for any property. Living in a walkable neighborhood is good for the environment and good for your health."
My neighborhood has a Walk Score of 77 out of 100.
Not planning to move? Use Walk Score to find places in your neighborhood that you may not have known about.

My walk score is 35. That’s not so bad. This service can be rather useful especially for those who are going to buy a house or just want to estimate their present location. I have also tried one more service at http://drivescore.fizber.com/. It is called Drive Score. With the help of it you can see how close establishments are by car. My result is 50. Drive Score alculates your score based on the number of places within a convenient driving distance. The greater the number of businesses nearby the higher the drive score.
Holy Smokes! My town got a 17 out of 100. I guess that is the disadvantage of living in a small town. All said, the advantages outweigh the walk score...although I would love it to be a perfect world...
