Walk Score Just Got Better

Front Seat, the trailblazers who brought us Walk Score, just improved on an already fabulous service for Denver home buyers.  Walk Score currently calculates the “walkability” of a neighborhood based on the proximity to shops, restaurants, retail and more.

Starting today, home buyers can also search for Denver Metro homes based on the proximity to public transit centers on Denver Relocation Broker and Moved Denver.

Denver Walk Score adds Transit

According to Mike Mathieu, Founder of Front Seat:

“A recent study in Denver showed homes within a half-mile of light rail appreciated more than 17% while the overall Denver housing market fell more than 7%.”

Front Seat, a civic software company, received a grant funded by the Rockefeller Foundation to incorporate this new search homes by transit feature into Walk Score.

Go to: search Denver homes using Walk Score to see how you can check out a home’s proximity to restaurants, shops, theater and now public transportation centers.
