Description
Elaynne Silva de Oliveira and colleagues audit street-level surroundings for walking and activity in São Paulo, Brazil, in a 2026 journal article. Fine details like sidewalks, trees, and crossings shape whether people walk for leisure or travel. The team scored routes of 400 to 700 meters around the homes of 1,434 adults, using satellite images and a standard audit tool.
Homes in the Central-West region had the best overall surroundings. Adults with more schooling, those identifying as White or Asian, and those aged 60 or older lived in areas with better scores for looks, trees, sidewalks, and crossings. Adults with less schooling and those identifying as Black or Brown lived near poorer sidewalks. The authors urge fairer urban planning.
