- Cultural Centers: include aquariums and
zoological facilities, arboreta and botanical gardens, dinner theaters,
drive-ins, historical places and services, libraries, movie theaters, museums
and art galleries, performing arts centers, planetariums, studies and art
galleries and theater producers’ stage facilities. We chose to include this
data in our map because we thought that children would enjoy going to these facilities.
-
Youth
Organizations: Child and youth services
provide a location for children to be active. They were included in our data
because of that and because they are a safe place for children to go with or
without their parents or guardians.
-
Religious Centers: are a combination of churches,
temples, synagogues, mosques, chapels, centers and other types of religious
facilities. We feel that some children will be involved in their religion, and
these places also provide a safe place for children to go.
-
Parks and gardens: these areas provide a place
for enjoyment of recreation, natural resources, and leisurely activities. Parks
range in size and locality from common neighborhood parks to regional parks.
These areas provide places children can go with their family and friends.
-
Roads and bike paths: we included these in our
maps to help determine ease of access. We assume that there is no bias of use
of roads and paths according to externalities.
-
Lakes: we included these to help the audience
read the map and get a sense of orientation
Assumptions:
- Children use roads and bike paths without bias
- Children stay around schools to find stuff to do or places to go.
- Guardians of the children assume all amenities are child-friendly.
- Children use amenities without bias.
