No Place to Play: A Los Angeles Parkland Analysis
No Place to Play finds that two-thirds of children 18 and under in Los Angeles do not live within walking distance of a public park.
The study compared the number and percentage of children living within one-quarter mile of a park - what's considered to be walking distance - in seven major metropolitan areas. With only one-third of children living near open space and 1.8 million children countywide lacking easy park access, Los Angeles fared worst among the areas evaluated.
