"For the first time we are able to define sprawl objectively, so we can see how it measures up," said Don Chen, SGA executive director.
So where does sprawl measure up in its most pronounced form? The three metro areas with the greatest sprawl, at least according to the SGA study, are Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif.; Greensboro-Winston-Salem-High Point, N.C.; and Raleigh-Durham, N.C., respectively.More................ http://www.siteselection.com/ssinsider/snapshot/sf021028.htm ---------------
IN THE LAST TWO DECADES, public health researchers have demonstrated how the built environmentâhomes, roads, neighborhoods, workplaces, and other structures and spaces created or modified by peopleâcan affect human health adversely.1â7 Urban sprawl, a pattern of uncontrolled development around the periphery of a city, is an increasingly common feature of the built environment in the United States and other industrialized nations.8 Although there is considerable evidence that urban sprawl has adverse environmental impacts and contributes to a variety of health problemsâincluding obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory disease9âimplementation of policies designed to combat sprawl, such as smart growth, has proven to be difficult.10â17 One of the main difficulties obstructing the implementation of smart-growth policies is the considerable controversy these policies generate. Such controversy is understandable, given the fact that the stakeholders affected by urban-planning policies have conflicting interests and divergent moral and political viewpoints.18 In some of these situations, deliberative democracyâan approach to resolving controversial public-policy questions that emphasizes open, deliberative debate among the affected parties as an alternative to votingâwould be a fair and effective way to resolve urban-planning issues.Go to:URBAN SPRAWL.
Urban sprawl in the United States has its origins in the flight to the suburbs that began in the 1950s. People wanted to live outside of city centers to avoid traffic, noise, crime, and other problems, and to have homes with more square footage and yard space.8,9 As suburban areas developed, cities expanded in geographic size faster than they grew in population. This trend has produced large metropolitan areas with low population densities, interconnected by roads. Residents of sprawling cities tend to live in single-family homes and commute to work, school, or other activities by automobile.8,9 People who live in large metropolitan areas often find it difficult to travel even short distances without using an automobile, because of the remoteness of residential areas and inadequate availability of mass transit, walkways, or bike paths. In 2002, the 10 worst US metropolitan areas for sprawl were RiversideâSan Bernardino, CA; GreensboroâWinston-SalemâHigh Point, NC; RaleighâDurham, NC; Atlanta, GA; GreenvilleâSpartanburg, SC; West Palm BeachâBoca RatonâDelray Beach, FL; BridgeportâStamfordâNorwalkâDanbury, CT; Knoxville, TN; OxnardâVentura, CA; and Fort WorthâArlington, TX
