What is meant by "connectivity'' as used in the LEED for Neighborhood Development Rating System?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In the context of LEED for Neighborhood Development, 'connectivity' refers to the ease with which people can move through a neighborhood, often measured by the number of publicly accessible street intersections per square mile. High connectivity indicates a well-connected street network, which facilitates walking, biking, and reduces vehicle miles traveled. This contributes to the creation of more walkable, efficient, and sustainable neighborhoods. It is a key factor in promoting active transportation and ensuring that a community is easily navigable.

Wait, are we sure it's just about intersections? Seems too simple.

I thought it was more about social connections, though.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think it was about public utilities, but that doesn't seem to fit here. I’m leaning towards D for transit access.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like it could also involve social aspects, like B. That seems relevant to community design.

I remember something about street intersections being important for walkability, so C could be a possibility too.

I think "connectivity" might relate to how well the neighborhood connects to public transit, so maybe it's D?
