"Access to public transit and minimizing commute times are high-priority, quality of life issues for many renters," said Mark Moran, MyNewPlace senior vice president of marketing, in a blog post on WalkScore.com.

"We’re very pleased to offer Walk Score users access to MyNewPlace’s extensive inventory of apartments and rental homes in virtually every neighborhood throughout the U.S."

According to the National Association of Realtors, more than three quarters of those in the market for a home rate being within a 30-minute commute to work as important.

Walk Score offers neighborhood maps showcasing local attractions that can also calculate commute costs from a home to a workplace. Website operators can embed the maps on their sites.
