I wrote a post yesterday on public transportation that was inspired by my friend Nick Bastain (@RailLife on Twitter). Well that post link was sent out via Twitter and I received a response from Ira Serkes (@serkes on Twitter) which is the inspiration for today’s post.

Ira brought a great site called www.walkscore.com to my attention and after putting my own address in and receiving a pathetic 68/100 – Somewhat Walkable score, I thought I would use a couple of listings from Roost to see how they stack up.
