How A City's Layout Affects Residents' Health

How important is urban design to the health of that city’s residents? New research looks into that question.

The research examined 14 world cities, including those in Belgium, New Zealand, Mexico and the U.S. Marc Adams, an assistant professor in the School of Nutrition and Health Promotion at Arizona State University was one of the researchers.

Mark Brodie is a co-host of The Show, KJZZ’s locally produced news magazine. Since starting at KJZZ in 2002, Brodie has been a host, reporter and producer, including several years covering the Arizona Legislature, based at the Capitol.
