I saw a post about this on DailyKos. Go to WalkScore.Com and enter your address - it will give you a score from 0 to 100. Living in a neighborhood with a high Walk Score is good for your health and good for the environment.
President Bush's ranch in Crawford, TX gets a big fat 0. Wanna know what MY address gets? A 98 out of 100, bitches!! So why in the HELL am I big as a house?!?
Answer: "FREE DELIVERY".
What is YOUR score?
damn, mine is 78 and i thought *I* lived in an uber-walkable neighborhood... you must have everything you need within about 7 steps of your lobby, LOL. lucky brat.
ReplyDeleteoh, and delivery is my downfall, too. that, and eating @ work too much! =)
54 It's a small town.
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on there?
xoxoxoxo
It's 82 in Vancouver, BC, Canada, where I wish I lived. Woe is me.
ReplyDelete68. figures. always one short of 69.
ReplyDeleteTimmy - :)
ReplyDelete91 here in Lakeview, Chicago.
ReplyDeleteMine was a 54 too.
ReplyDeleteIt's a 62 in Columbus (but I happen to live behind a grocery story, so that helps). It's a 42 at my grandmother's house in Cleveland, but I do much more walking there than in Columbus because of the Cultural Gardens and the ability to be able to take the bus to just about everywhere in and around town.
ReplyDeleteWalk Score: 83 out of 100!
ReplyDeleteAndersonville neighborhood, Chicago, IL.
Darn it. I knew I should have never moved to the suburbs and become a soccer mom. It's why my behind has spread and I'm no longer a fashionista. Big Sigh.
ReplyDeleteMine is 67, which kind of surprised me since it is a very small town.
