My wife and Ia re moving to Seattle next year and it's fun to take addresses for apartments from HousingMaps and plug them into Walk Score to rate them on walkability. A few of the places I've looked at in the downtown Seattle and Queen Anne neighborhoods have been in the low 90s. Walk Score is an awesome tool!

I believe that walk score is cool, but nowadays more and more people prefer to drive cars. Homes are often located in an area where some establishments are easier to get to by car than on foot. I've recently found a type of service on drivescore.fizber.com which is called Drive Score. It shows a map of what establishments are in your neighborhood and calculates a Drive Score based on the number of places within a convenient driving distance. It doesn’t mean that drive score is better than walk score – they are equal and both necessary in the modern world!
