Minneapolis is known as a great city for walking, biking and access to parks.

• People in lower income neighborhoods do not have that same access.

More places to be active

According to Trust for Public Land, in Minneapolis neighborhoods with more people of color:

• There is 60% less park space than mostly white neighborhoods.
• People find it harder to be active because of concerns about safety, including:
  • Crime
  • Poorly maintained infrastructure

We're working to change that.
