Walkability

How walkable is your neighborhood? Nadine at In Blue Ink posted this link, which she got from another pal, to check the relative ease of living without a car in your neighborhood. You just plug in your address - or any other - and off it goes! Check it out here.

Our neighborhood scored a 37. What does it mean?  25 - 50 = Not Walkable: Only a few destinations are within easy walking range. For most errands, driving or public transportation is a must.

So, we still need our cars, and for sure we do. It goes off the Google business listings, so I'm sure it's incomplete, but for our area there just aren't a lot of places it's comfortable to walk to - but it also depends on your climate and fitness level, I would say.

Anyway, check it out.
