do Traffic Heat Maps that display volume and average speed of traffic exist? -House/apartment shopping in the dystopian present

I am house shopping and I want to buy a house that is <1.3 miles from an elementary school, park, and grocery store. My goal is for my new home to allow my child to be able to walk/bike to school or the park while minimizing the risk of vehicular manslaughter. I figure that a traffic heat map would greatly reduce the amount of labor involved in house shopping since currently I am stuck perusing city level excel sheets in order to hopefully stumble into the relevant data (not all streets have data collected by the city).

  • Yes. Pull up Google maps and say you want to do some theoretical trip in the future. It'll show you different average traffic & time for the route for whatever time you pick. So you can check your possible future commute, etc
