[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The score doesn't factor in the quality of the destinations to which one can walk. Note that Van Ness has a high walkability score. And while there are a number of walkable shops, restaurants, etc., not many of them are worth walking to. [/quote] This is exactly how I feel about it. I live in the suburbs, but somehow managed to get a 75 walk score from the website. Yet, I drive pretty much everywhere, because the places within walking distance are, mostly, not places I need or want to go. However, we did buy where we did in large part because there are 2 nice parks within a very easy walking distance, and having that was more important than being able to walk to a grocery store.[/quote]
