Good Place Walkability Score (GWS)
A new Score is gaining popularity in the Real Estate industry. It is known as Good Place Walkability Score (GWS). It computes the walkability of a project to various amenities and facilities. • 90-100 is considered a
walkers' paradise where residents don't need to own a car;
• 70-89 is very walkable and residents probably don't need a car.
• Below 70 are somewhat walkable but probably necessitate transportation to get around.
• A score below 50 means the community is car-dependent, Below 25 means residents need to drive everywhere.
(Note: GWS is still at early stage in Malaysia. Currently covering KLCC, Mont Kiara and Bangsar)
