How often do you land on Boardwalk?

Share of all turns, long run
2.37%

That makes it the 19th least-landed-on square of 39 on the board.

On a board where every square was equally likely, each would take 2.5% of turns. Boardwalk takes 2.37% — only 0.95× the flat rate. The board isn’t flat because Go To Jail, the two card decks, and the doubles rule all pump traffic around it unevenly.

Why this number

Boardwalk doesn’t only collect dice traffic — a card routes players here directly:

What it earns

Boardwalk is part of the dark blue group (Park Place and Boardwalk), costs $400 to buy and $200 per house. Fully built with hotels, the group pays for itself in about 29 opponent turns — 4th slowest group of 8.

No houses$50164 turns
1 house$200115 turns
2 houses$60053 turns
3 houses$1,40029 turns
4 houses$1,70029 turns
Hotel$2,00029 turns

Rent is for this property alone; payback is for the whole dark blue group, since you can’t build houses without owning all of it.
