Culver City has made it into the top 20 of a list of the most walkable cities in the United States.
The ratings were released by Walk Score, a Seattle-based group.
Culver City was listed as "very walkable" with a ranking of 79 out of 100. Culver City was also ranked in the top 20 nationally as being among the most walkable cities around.
"Culver City’s thriving restaurant and retail scene, safe and appealing streets, and connections to transit make it an ideal place to walk," said Culver City’s Mayor Micheál O’Leary. "With the opening of the Expo Light Rail Station fast approaching and more streetscape and mixed-use projects in the pipeline, we expect that Culver City will become even more pedestrian-friendly in the years to come."
The list ranked 2,500 cities across the nation. Walk Score bases its rankings on whether the majority of errands in a neighborhood can be done without having to drive a car.
