Technical Description
Projected people per park-acre, using the number of people within a 10-minute walk of each site and the site’s acreage. The number of people is based on 2050 population projections by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) at the Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) level. For New Park Priority Areas, 3 acres (the median size of a Community School Park) was used for this analysis.
