"Portland is among the top 10 walkable cities in the nation, according to a Web site that measures walkability.Walkscore.com ranked the largest 40 cities in the nation on a scale of zero to 100 based on how easy it is to live a “car-lite” lifestyle. Portland is number 10, with a walk score of 66.
Seven neighborhoods in Portland are Walkers’ Paradises, with walks scores of 90-100. Forty-five percent of Portland residents have a walk score of 70 or above. Eighty-three percent have a walk score of at least 50 — and 17 percent live in car-dependent neighborhoods."
This doesn't surprise me, as we specifically relocated to Portland because we like the walkability. But it's nice to see it acknowledged, and I've been a fan of walkscore.com since stumbling across them last year.
