## How far walkability reaches

Walkability averages 84 within 1 km of the centre, 70 from 1 to 3 km out and 41 from 3 to 5 km out. 48 of the 91 points within 5 km fall on water or on land without streets, such as hillsides, forest or farmland, and are left out, so the score describes only the built-up part. 51% of the sampled area scores 70 or more, where most errands can be done on foot.
