There's a lot of buzz over Walk Score, the site that rates neighborhood walkability.  Using a Google-sitic algorithm, it first tallies the restaurants, coffee shops and other destinations near a given address and then gives them a numerical weight based on their distance from the address.  Neighborhoods with interior retail tend to score high; neighborhoods without interior retail tend to score low. 

I write a bunch about everyone else's neighborhood so I ought to explain what happened with my neighborhood's VMU application.

I live within the boundaries of the South Lamar Neighborhood Association.  SLNA's VMU overlay district includes most of the properties on the east/southeast side of South Lamar from Oltorf to Ben White Boulevard.
