I wish I lived in a more walkable area, see the chart below for comparing walkability scores and below info on what helps get a high score!
It’s no surprise that homes in more walkable areas tend to be more expensive, but a new study from Redfin now puts numbers to the worth of walkability: An increase of one Walk Score point bumps a home’s price by an average of $3,250 or 0.9 percent.
Amenities like parks, jobs, and eateries located within a five-minute walk make for a higher rating, but anything within a 30-minute walking distance is considered.
