marjaerwinI'm going to define this as the ratio between the straight-line distance for a trip and the actual walking distance. [Or chair distance, not sure the appropriate terminology.] This will, of course, vary from person to person and day to day. and doesn't take more enjoyable routes into account.
So today, I only had to go 1 km one way. Which works out to about 2,500 steps round trip.
But I had to detour to avoid a busy highway, to avoid some dangerous intersections, to avoid 2 batteries of high-powered strobe lights, and to avoid 3 dogs. Which made it 13,876 steps round trip.
Walkability Ratio 18%.
