Did you know that most people are willing to walk to destinations that are within a 0.5 mile radius of their homes? Did you know that walkability can have a direct effect on greenhouse gas emissions and health? We believe that most people should be able to reach shopping, health facilities, services, and schools within a 20 minute walk or bike ride of their home. A complete neighborhood should offer diverse housing options for diverse people, gathering places, and facilities to meet basic human needs. For the complete neighborhood to work, residents should have a safe, pleasant experience getting to and from these places.
Do you live in a complete neighborhood?
