Inman Park ranks as one of the most walkable areas due to that core and close proximity to Little 5 Points' business district. Inman Park is one of my favorite areas. I hope I can make real estate investments there someday.
4 of the top 5 walkable neighborhoods are downtown, according to WalkScore. https://www.walkscore.com/GA/Atlanta

Your point? I said ONE of the most walkable-which is a correct statement. It ranks #8 with a score of 85-meaning most errands can be accomplished on foot.

Surprised to see Buckhead Village is at a 91 walkscore. It's walkable, but it still sort of exists in it's own bubble. Midtown should be in the 90s, but I have a feeling the Midtown historic district sort of pulls the average down a bit. I'd imagine those living in the actual dense part of the neighborhood are probably experiencing 95+ walkscores. It is the most walkable neighborhood in this city.

No argument from me, wanted to provide other posters with the link to see the rankings.

Hills can certainly be challenging. Duluth, MN, has hills similar to San Francisco in many ways, and in the wintertime they can be rather slippery even on foot.

I see. It seemed like you were saying Inman wasn't that walkable. Yes, that website is very thorough and informative.
