London and the 15-minute city
The 15-minute city is an urban planning concept where daily needs — groceries, schools, healthcare, work, recreation — are reachable on foot within a quarter hour. London's walk score of 87 measures how well the city meets that standard. Landmarks like Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace anchor many walkable neighborhoods.
Mapping a 15-minute walk radius around any address in London reveals whether daily essentials are in range. It's the single most predictive measure of neighborhood walkability — even better than walk score alone.
