Coulsdon's 15-minute neighbourhood score: Coulsdon Road scores 8.8 out of 10, Highwold 3.3
Each road scores up to one point for each of ten essentials (a food shop, GP, pharmacy, dentist, school, park, café or pub, library or community centre, bus stop or station, and somewhere to exercise): a full point if it is within about 300 m, fading to nothing at 1.2 km, and anything within a 15-minute walk (about 900 m) counts as served. It is our own measure, built from the data above, and it is as complete as OpenStreetMap is.
