What this page covers

Walkably gives places in Europe a walking score from 0 to 100, based on the walk to eight daily needs and how pleasant the streets are.

This page uses the area Eurostat, the EU's statistics office, calls greater Cosenza: the city and the towns that have grown into it. Besides Cosenza itself, it takes in Rende. About 100,000 people live there (2025 figure). Inside it we scored 5,287 street cells with 5,839 buildings in them.

Every number here comes from the same scores as the map. The score runs from 0 to 100. The walk to eight daily needs on real streets makes up 60% of it, and how pleasant the streets are makes up 40%. Each place counts by the people who live there, from census counts: the typical score is the score of where people live. The comparison with Europe counts 466.8 million people. The score uses no data about who lives anywhere: no income, age, origin or other personal data. How the score works.
