These 15 Denver Neighborhoods Boast Impressive Walkability Scores
A walkability score is a number between 0 and 100 and gives a snapshot of a neighborhood’s friendliness to pedestrians. The higher a walk score is, the more likely you’ll find nearby schools, stores, and restaurants, connected by safe and well-maintained sidewalks.
The benefits of living in a walkable area? Convenience, better health, and financial gain. In fact, homes in walkable neighborhoods have significantly higher home values than those in low-walk-score neighborhoods.
