I’m lovin’ it! (Picturing a giant Walk Score logo followed by the words “Billions and billions served.”)
A few months ago we announced that we had passed 5,000 sites using the Walk Score Amenity Map and APIs and that number has now grown to over 6,000 including new comers ForRent.com, Bank of America, and AARP Travel Center Powered by Expedia.
Here’s why Brock MacLean, For Rent Media’s Senior Vice President of National Sales and Development, says they added Walk Score to their site: “With the addition of Walk Score, we are giving potential renters more valuable information about the properties they are viewing, letting them assess communities based on their lifestyle. This is one additional piece of information that will be helpful during the selection process and increase renter engagement on the site.”
Over the past few months we’ve also added a Mobile Amenity Map, walkability maps and neighborhood rankings for 2,500 U.S. cities, a preview our new “Street Smart” Walk Score, and a number of other new features. And, more’s coming including exciting design and feature enhancements to the Walk Score Professional Amenity Map.

The only way to provide corrections to places listed is to give your Facebook access. Don’t want to do that but am willing to provide my email address. The walkability list for zip 20001 K st NW has several wrong addresses and closed locations would provide corrections but not if only way is to give Facebook access.
