Walking in Philly

One of the biggest benefits of living in Philly is the convenience.  I am a Philly transplant from a Midwestern city with a driving culture.  I find myself constantly trying to explain how fantastic a walkable neighborhood is to people from home.  Apparently more and more people are coveting walkable neighborhoods and The Wall Street Journal published A Walker's Guide To Home buying.

Here are some walk scores for Philly neighborhoods:

19130's walk score: 91 "Walker's Paradise"
19123's walk score: 94 "Walker's Paradise"
19106's walk score: 100, "Walker's Paradise"
19107's walk score: 97, "Walker's Paradise"
19102's walk score: 98, "Walker's Paradise
19103's walk score: 98, "Walker's Paradise
19147's walk score: 94, "Walker's Paradise"
19146's walk score: 63, "Somewhat Walkable"
19148's Walk score: 78 "Very Walkable"
19145's Walk score: 80 "Very Walkable"
