Theodosia, Thanks for the link. My house gets a 26 on the walk score. Bummer.

Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
98!
My parents' house is a whopping 8!
It isn't quite the boonies, but the nearest place to purchase anything is a gas station about a mile away.
My appt gets 89. Which is somewhat better than I was expecting. If I lived a little bit North (in Andersonville) or South (Wrigleyville) I'd be closer to a lot more cool restaurants, etc.
My current place gets a 72. Take that, LA detractors!
Uh, not that I walk to any of those places--I should check my last place. It was even more pedestrian convenient...and it gets an 82. Cool.
Exciting about the EW review! I may have to buy a copy.
The place where Emily and Val lived in Central Square gets a 97. The apartment may have had its problems, but it was really nicely located!
Mine got a 97.
Mine got a 91. The Bars listed are completely hilarious if you know the neighborhood.
The nearest bookstore listed for me is a tiny Brazilian religious one.
Exciting, paperdol!
That site isn't able to take one thing into account: if it is boneheaded stupid to attemp to walk anywhere due to traffic. My brother's house gets a deservingly low 18, however, it should really be a 1 or 0. Because you are insane to try to walk the road that leads to anything. Very little space next to the road, no sidewalks, lots of blindspots and everyone driving way too fast. Not that it's stopped him, but....
My house got a 43, which was way higher than I expected. It seemed to have a combination of the "here, walk on a giant highway" and a "here, walk three miles through a neighborhood in which you will get shot!"
In non-related news, I am reconsidering having my cell ohone ring be "white & nerdy" after having my phone ring on the bus when I was the only white person on the bus AND I was reading Harry Potter.
