Why these scores

Auto explanation

On foot

A walk score of 51/100 makes this somewhat walkable. The strongest drivers are schools (nearest: Richard Lock, 232m) and parks and green space (nearest: Jubilee Park, Frinton, 240m). everyday shops and services (nearest: Comptons Kitchens, Bedrooms and Bathrooms, 270m) also help.

By public transport

A transit score of 33/100 (Some Transit) is driven mainly by amenity diversity and population density.

By bike

A bike score of 49/100 (Some Biking) is driven mainly by air quality and walkable destinations.
