Accessibility measures how well-connected and reachable a location is through transit access, walkability, traffic flow, broadband coverage, and EV infrastructure. Well-connected locations attract more customers, employees, and tenants.
Accessibility is a deal-maker for retail and office CRE. Retail needs walk-in traffic and easy parking; offices need transit access for employee commutes. EV infrastructure is increasingly important for forward-looking developments. Broadband quality affects work-from-home viability.
Proximity and frequency of public transit options (bus, rail, subway).
Count of transit stops within 800m weighted by service frequency. More options = better access.
Walkability score measuring pedestrian-friendliness of the area.
Walkability algorithm based on distance to amenities and pedestrian infrastructure.
Real-time and historical traffic flow quality on surrounding roads.
Congestion ratio (current speed / free flow speed). Lower congestion = better accessibility.
Availability and speed of broadband internet services.
Federal broadband availability data at census block level. Higher speeds = better infrastructure.
Density of EV charging stations, indicating modern infrastructure investment.
Federal alternative fuels data. Count and type of chargers within 2km.
Density of cell towers and 5G deployment indicating mobile infrastructure readiness.
Federal antenna registration data. Count and type of towers within 2km radius.
An Accessibility score of 85 means this location scores 85 out of 100 for connectivity and infrastructure. Transit access and walkability are the most significant contributors.
