In Latina, 29% of the street cells are in the most walkable fifth, more than the 20% of an average place.

The most and least walkable areas
Each street cell takes the name of the nearest neighbourhood, village or town on OpenStreetMap, up to 1.5 km away. We rank the 9 areas where people live: each has at least 200 street cells and 500 buildings, and at least a quarter as many buildings per street cell as Latina as a whole, so ports, hill parks and farmland drop out.
