What's Your Walk Score?

Thanks Joel G for the tip off to Walkscore.com. This site ranks 2,508 neighborhoods in the largest US cities, and guess what?? Seattle is #6 on their list.

Criteria for the "walk score" include looking at the restaurants, stores, schools, parks, etc nearby as well as how easy it is to live a "car-lite lifestyle." A score between 90-100 is a "Walker's Paradise" whereas a 0-24 means "car-dependent."

I typed in my address and my house gets a walk score of 28. According to the site, that means we're car dependent. Once we get retail in Talus the score should go up!
