You put in your address and it tells you your overall cost of your transportation needs by address and gas costs. The gas cost has an adjustable slider underneath the picture. Go HERE to start playing with this one.
This next one I found from a link on the previous one. It rates neighborhoods by walk-ability. Click on a tab called 'all cites' to find your city if your not in the top 50.
My neighborhood doesn't show up as walkable at all which is basically correct. To see what yours is, go HERE.

Mike, both of these calculators are extremely interesting. I did it for both my present and former addresses.
I already know that gas costs more Redneckville than it does in any of the surrounding towns. Also, Redneckville ranks near the bottom in walk-ability because although a small town, there are no sidewalks here.

Duck - OK that's enough work for toda... this week. Time for an extended break.
Jay - It's usually the smaller town that DO have sidewalks.
Almost nobody walks in Huntsville, except up at Oak Mountain or at UAH.
Walking is best when done in a styvan setting, or on some urban greenway.
Nice charts!
My walk score was 42....and I live in a small town that apparently has nothing in it!
Elvis - A college campus is walk city.
Angel - Google knew what you meant. Did you mean slyvan setting it asked. I still didn't know but I looked it up and yes, that's what I meant. And apparently you did too.
Andrea - Have you got a McDonald's you can walk to? I have a Jack-in-the-Box I can risk my life crossing 7 lanes to get to.
