Walkability in the United States

In 2019, the EPA released a census that included walkability ratings of various neighborhood blocks throughout the United States. For this visualization, an interactive map was created that displays walkability throughout the United States. More specifically, walkability ratings were grouped by county and placed into an index grouping based on those formulated by the EPA. In the visualization, there is a description of the EPA walkability index. This was designed with the intention of allowing anyone to open the graphic and understand what data it is displaying. Additionally, you can filter by region and state based on preferences.
