Via Joel – Walk Score will tell you how “walkable” a neighbourhood is.
Of course, the first thing I did was compare my work address vs my home address, and it was a tie! Oh, and the record label that we used to share office space with is a bar, apparently.
That said, I’m a little bit afraid of whoever put this together – I’ve been known to walk further than many people, but some of the addresses were further than the distance from my home to my work, which is a half hour bike ride away.
My home score, on the other hand, had everything relatively nearby.
The point is slightly moot, of course, when one considers that I’m posting this as a way to kill time while awaiting feedback on a software patch. Work or home, if I ever manage to leave a building, I’m running, not walking.
