How this area was scored

This page is built from 1 analysis of Westerpark. Each analysis reads satellite and street-level imagery for the area, scores the five categories above, and the page shows the average.

Scores are a starting point, not a substitute for standing on the street. They are consistent — every area is measured the same way, so comparing two of them is meaningful — but they cannot tell you about a noisy neighbour, a good landlord or a bad bus route. The community section on this page is where residents fill in that sort of detail.
