About a quarter of active listings are considered walkable, or have a Walk Score ranking of 50 to 100, although only about 4% are a walker\u2019s paradise, or have a Walk Score of 90 or above. While house hunters are willing to spend more for walkability, the premium they\u2019ve paid for properties in this category has slipped 2.3% from 2016, when such homes in the U.S. sold for 25.8% more than car-dependent ones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe premium drop is tied to affordability. Properties that are more affordable are seeing the most demand and price growth right now, and homes in less walkable neighborhoods often fall into this category,\u201d Redfin chief economist <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/author\/darylfairweather\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daryl Fairweather<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> said. \u201cThere just aren&#8217;t as many people who can afford walkable neighborhoods. Many house hunters are also willing to move to less walkable neighborhoods in order to get<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/millennial-homebuyers-prefer-single-family-homes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> single-family homes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home-sale prices have been rising faster in car-dependent areas than in walkable places since September 2018, according to a 2019 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/walkable-neighborhoods-home-prices-rising-slower\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Prices in car-dependent neighborhoods climbed 4.3% year over year in July to a median of $312,100, compared with a 2.3% annual increase in walkable locations, the data showed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The results for this report differed by metro area. In <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/1826\/MA\/Boston\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Boston<\/a>, walkability increased the value of a home by 29%, or $140,724, the highest premium in dollar terms of all of the U.S. regions we analyzed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBoston is very flat, and one of the most walkable cities around. Parking can be difficult, so people often prefer to live near public transportation. We\u2019ve had parking spots sell for six figures in some neighborhoods,\u201d said Redfin Boston team manager <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/april-itano\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">April Itano<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cOur public transportation is great compared to other cities, and it\u2019s pretty easy to get by without a vehicle if you live downtown. We also have a relatively high percentage of residents who prefer to work and live in the city over the suburbs.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/13654\/CA\/Oakland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Oakland<\/a>, however, walkable homes sold for 1.3% less, or $9,477, than car-dependent homes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The benefits of walkability have also changed over time. In 2016, <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/30756\/GA\/Atlanta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Atlanta<\/a> garnered the highest walkability premium\u201438.1%\u2014of any metro area. In 2019, it boasted a 30.2% premium. That\u2019s still the highest of all areas we analyzed in percentage terms, but it also marks the largest premium drop. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/18142\/FL\/Tampa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tampa<\/a> saw the biggest boost, with an increase of 6.3% since 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Methodology<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These estimates compare homes by controlling for differences in property and neighborhood characteristics, including property size, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, type of property (single-family, condo or townhouse), age of the building, days on market, zip code housing density and the month the home sold in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This report is based on data from Walk Score, a Redfin company that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/how-walk-score-works\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">measures the walkability of addresses<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cWalkable\u201d means some or most errands can be accomplished on foot, while \u201ccar-dependent\u201d means most errands require a car. For the purposes of this report, we combined three categories\u2014somewhat walkable (ranking of 50-69; some errands can be accomplished on foot), very walkable (ranking of 70-89; most errands can be accomplished on foot) and walker\u2019s paradise (ranking of 90-100; daily errands do not require a car)\u2014into the \u201cwalkable\u201d category. We combined the two categories that ranked below 50, meaning most errands require a car, into the \u201ccar-dependent\u201d category.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Homebuyers pay nearly a quarter more for walkable homes, but that\u2019s less than in the past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13346,"featured_media":67696,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[45,47],"tags":[38],"dashboard":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-67674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-regional-trends","category-walk-score","tag-walk-score"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.7 (Yoast SEO v27.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How Much Does Walkability Increase the Value of a Home?
