Neighborhood park access and park characteristics are associated with weight status in youth
Park availability and physical activity, TV time, and overweight and obesity among women
Investigating Issues of Environmental Injustice in Neighborhoods Surrounding Parks
Parks are important resources for facilitating community health. Using an environmental justice framework, this study in Kansas City, Missouri examined disparities by income and race/ ethnicity for bordering land uses, densities of incivilities (e.g., vandalism, litter), unhealthy retail establishments in neighborhoods surrounding parks. Low and medium income and high minority park neighborhoods were more likely to be surrounded by higher densiti…
