In the beginning...


For our project we selected to analyze the availability and accessibility of civic and other amenities.  We chose to look at the “friendliness” of cultural centers, youth organizations, religious centers, roads, bike paths, parks and gardens, and lakes to elementary through high school students.  We defined a "child" as a person between ages 5 and 18 years old. Friendliness is defined by how far away amenities are from the schools.  We determined that a friendly walking distance is one mile, a friendly biking distance is 2 miles, and a friendly driving distance is 3 miles.  Our ultimate goal is to compare the friendliness of amenities in comparison to where schools are located.
