NYC Survey Shows Benefits of Walking, Cycling, Active Commuting


Treehugger has an interesting article about a recent survey done in NYC:

The NYC Department of Health conducted a city-wide survey to assess the health benefits of walking and cycling on the population of New York.

The correlation between health and income is interesting, and how cycling or walking makes more of a difference at the lower income levels.
