Someone at work linked me to Walk Score over the holidays. I more or less agree with it's assessment of the last several addresses I've lived at, although it doesn't (yet?) take the quality of things into account. Westchester and Hermosa were both imminently walk-friendly. The CC-adjacent address gets points for the grocery store, but is over-scored otherwise. Flag, on the other hand, was penalized for the [real] grocery store being just out of range... but it more than makes up for it in the quality of walkable eating and drinking.

Hmmm, they should apply rankings to each category and give more credit for things that are more frequented (e.g., a walkable coffee shop is worth more than a walkable hardware store) and to incorporate GooMaps' star rating.
