[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP but it is pretty reasonable to speculate kids on the outer edge of these walk boundaries are not walking a lot of the time.  No one has "facts" because we don't follow every family in Arlington.  But I am at outer ring of Yorktown and definitely we drive my kids a lot.  We were at Swanson before and tons of people had carpools to drive the kids who were still in the walk zone. Why is this controversial?  [/quote]

High school walk zones are much larger.

You knew of a few families at Swanson, okay? DHMS is in a much more dense and walkable part of Arlington.[/quote]

Than Swanson????  What?

No.  It isn’t.[/quote]

Regarding walkability:

Both Swanson and DHMS have a ton of walkers. Hence all the new pedestrian safety measures along busy Langston and Washington Blvds.

Westover and Cherrydale (and all of the surrounding neighborhoods) are very walkable by design since they all predate WWII. This walkability is what’s unique to Arlington (and D.C.). Families are lucky to live in either zone. [/quote]
