The Livability Principle Framework
The Livability Principle Framework is a guide for creating communities that balance growth with quality of life. It focuses on five key ideas: making neighborhoods accessible and walkable, providing affordable housing, promoting diverse transportation options, encouraging sustainable development, and supporting local economies. These principles help planners and policymakers develop places where people can live, work, and enjoy life comfortably, sustainably, and without unnecessary stress. By following these principles, communities can improve safety, health, and overall well-being for residents now and in the future.
