What Affects This Score

The city model estimates walking conditions from mapped road attributes:

  • Increases stress: High speed limits, multi-lane roads, highways, missing sidewalk tags on some road types
  • Decreases stress: Bike lanes, traffic calming, street lighting tags

The snapshot includes 218,258 mapped road/path records. The city builder weights road types differently; this is not a safety assessment.
