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 http://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 life! I believe that walk score is cool, but nowadays more and more people prefer to drive cars.

This service can be especially useful for those who are going to buy a house cause it can help to estimate a particular location. But how often do we walk nowadays? I ve found one more service called drive score at http://drivescore.fizber.com/ With it one can see how close establishments are by car. Homes are often located in an area where restaurants, libraries, grocery stores, hospitals and other businesses are easier to get to by car than on foot.

I think neighborhoods can use this as a guideline to see where they need to be! It's fun too lol My neighborhood’s walk score was in the high fifties; it’s very walkable but the choices available to walk TO are not as great.

The New Orleans French Quarter thus scored in the 90s. You have to walk as there are few places to parka car!
