My current place rates a 34, but, like sarameg's, it doesn't take into account the actual walkability of the roads that go from point A to point B. I'd actually give my neighborhood around 15. Sucks.
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

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.

Haha, I think we broke the site. It just told me that they're over their Google Maps limit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I saw some popular blog link to it yesterday, so I figure it's been getting pretty popular....

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Hellooo, Natter!
My house got a *9* on that walkability thingie. Heh.
So exciting, paperdol!

I think I got low balled with a 91, but then our big grocery store closed. The closest bookstore listing, though, is Giant Robot.

Anyone know of awesome places to eat in Houston? Maybe that deliver? Maybe barbecue?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The grocery store it lists as close to me isn't a proper grocery store. V. small. At my previous address I was equidistant between a Vons and a Pavilions, I could walk to restaurants, bars, library, post office...it was tres cool.
Right now I don't walk anywhere from home, but I do walk a bit around work.

The house where I grew up has a score of 45, but it's changed a lot from when I was a kid--back then, we only had a gas station and school within walking distance, but there's been an explosion of stores and restaurants in the strip malls developed out of the farmland that surrounded the subdivision back in the '70s and '80s.
My current apartment is only a 23, which is understandable--the nearest thing that isn't residential is the library one mile north, and the Walgreens another 1/2 mile north of that.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Our new house gets a 66, but that is clearly too low, since the only important thing is that we can walk to an In 'n Out Burger!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Gas explosions in Dallas on the news. With NYC, SF and now this I worry.
