About this tool
How the Arizona State Hall Finder works
Hall Finder ranks 8 Arizona State residence halls by the weekly walk to class. Add the buildings where classes meet and the days of the week for each. It adds up every hall's walk there and back, then lists the halls from the shortest week of walking to the longest, with the walking routes on a map.
- Add classes. Upload an .ics calendar, a screenshot or a PDF of the schedule, or search 72 campus places (classroom buildings, libraries, gyms and dining halls) by name or building code.
- Pick the days. Choose which weekdays each place is visited.
- Rank the halls. The shortest weekly walk comes first. Pick a hall to see each route and its minutes.
The 8 Arizona State halls it ranks
Each hall links to its own page, with room sizes and a to-scale floor plan.
How the walking time is counted
Walks follow real paths and sidewalks from OpenStreetMap, door to door, at an average walking pace of about 3 mph. A hall’s weekly walk is, for every place, the days visited times the one-way minutes times two. Buses, waiting at crossings and the order of classes are not counted, so treat the result as a fair way to compare halls rather than a stopwatch. The details are on how we measure.
Where the data comes from
Walking data for Arizona State was last built on October 24, 2026 from these sources.
- © OpenStreetMap contributors: building names, footprints and entrances; the walking network (ODbL-1.0)
- ASU, Tempe Building Names and Codes: building codes
- ASU University Housing: First Year Housing and Continuing Student Housing (Tempe): first-year and upper-year tags (each hall's yearSource)
Where those sources had gaps, a few building locations, codes and first-year tags were set by hand.
