Walkable neighborhoods

Walkable neighborhoods are areas designed to facilitate easy, safe walking for residents. They feature sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, nearby shops, parks, schools, and public transportation, making daily errands and activities accessible on foot. Such neighborhoods encourage walking as a convenient, healthy, and environmentally friendly mode of transportation, reducing reliance on cars. They foster a sense of community, improve safety, and enhance overall quality of life by promoting active living and local interaction. Well-designed walkable neighborhoods support sustainable urban living and contribute to healthier, more vibrant communities.
