Just found (and instantly fell in love with) walkscore.com. Rates any location based on proximity of the nearest park, library, coffee shop, bank, etc. For example, downtown Bend is a “Walker’s Paradise” at 92/100 points, while (interestingly) Northwest Crossing is “Car Dependent” with only 49/100.
Any of you NWX residents care to agree with or dispute that?
The “commute” tab provides good info about walk/bike/drive times, including elevation profiles, which I always love to see.
I’d have to disagree
