Walk Score
http://walkscore.com/ See how “walkable” your neighborhood is.
My current home in suburban Kirkland scores 29, good old Hart Hall on the campus of Texas A&M University is a 58, and Mars Hill Church in the nearly-industrial neighborhood of Ballard in Seattle hits a pretty nice 75. It’s not perfect for a number of reasons (for example, the 95th Court Apartments in Redmond are a respectable 65, but due to the fact that the apartments are on a hill, it’s actually a lot less desirable to walk than it would be otherwise), but still a pretty neat app.

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!
