Are you looking to walk off some of that extra helping of turkey you had over Thanksgiving?
You are in luck if you live in the City of Victoria, which has a walk-ability rating of 78 out of 100, according to , a website that promotes walkable neighbourhoods.

This rating earns Victoria the status of B次元官网网址渧ery walkableB次元官网网址� as B次元官网网址渕ost errands can be accomplished on foot.B次元官网网址� Of the 14 Victoria neighbourhoods that the site rates, Harris Green (98), Downtown (97) and North Park (91) finish in the Top 13. Rockland (71), Oaklands (70), and Gonzales (66) make up the Bottom 3.
Oak Bay finishes between Saanich and Victoria with a walk-ability rating of 61.
Saanich, the regionB次元官网网址檚 largest municipality, finishes with a ranking of B次元官网网址渟omewhat walkableB次元官网网址� by scoring 51 out of 100 points. While the website does not break down Saanich by neighbourhoods, Saanich likely features consider variability, with neighbourhoods bordering Victoria and Oak Bay likely more walkable than neighbourhoods towards the northern or western end of the municipality.
West Shore communities meanwhile struggle when it comes to walk-ability. Langford with a rating of 48 out of 100 is a B次元官网网址渃ar-dependent city,B次元官网网址� as are View Royal (47), and Colwood (42), where B次元官网网址渕ost errands require a car.B次元官网网址�
Sooke (23) and Metchosin (15) are communities, where B次元官网网址渁lmost all errands require a car.B次元官网网址�
But if these figures confirm the cliche that the West Shore communities are car-reliant communities, the Saanich Peninsula should not feel too smug. North Saanich ties Metchosin for the least walkable community in the Greater Victoria region, while Central Saanich (35) and Sidney (32) are not exactly friendly places for pedestrians.
