WalkScore.com — Episode 2: bookofjoe World Headquarters™ scores 9 (on a scale of 0-100)
After I featured this nifty website last Sunday, I decided to give it a try myself.
That's the way we do things around here.
Anyway.
Turns out my neighborhood (above, with my little Monopoly-style house icon in the center) isn't very walkable at all.
Tell you what: I wouldn't want to live anywhere else I know of, even if given carte blanche.
Just goes to show that being a 9 isn't all that bad sometimes.

Our home's score was a zero. Not a single icon on the map, except for our house. But we planned it that way. Nearest neighbor is a mile away. The rest is just Catskill green. We walk just to walk (and beautiful walks they are!). We drive everywhere else.

A low score could be due to affluence exclusivity or influenced by poverty such as in a food desert situation. Which one are you?

Obviously, it doesn't take treadmills into account.
