How Walk-able is Your Knox County OH Neighborhood?


This week I came across a website that is just so neat, I had to share it. www.WalkScore.com allows you to type in any address, and it will rate the “walk-ability” of that property by calculating its distance to things like the nearest grocery store, movie theater, library, school, park, and pharmacy.

We all know that walking is important for our health and, with all of the hype over “going green” lately, we know that walking instead of driving when possible is one way that we can all help to save the environment. In fact, it is recommended that adults tread
10,000 steps per day to reap the many benefits of walking. Why not consider the walk-ability of a neighborhood the next time you are in the market for a new home? Or, if you’ve recently moved to a new home, check out the walk-ability to various destinations in your new neighborhood.
