Abstract

The present study is an assessment of the built environment--defined by C.H. Williams (2007) as physical or manmade features such as sidewalks, street lights, traffic, and parks that impact physical activity--of the Monmouth Elementary School walk zone and a discussion of its influence on physical activity levels. This study aims to address the following questions: (1) how walkable is the walk zone of Monmouth Elementary School and (2) what areas are most and least suited for walking?
