What kind of outdoors village is Tytherleigh?
Read from the data: what stands out first, good and bad.
Tytherleigh’s strongest suit is protected countryside on the doorstep. Where it falls short is how far some homes are from a park.
Few Tytherleigh residents live within a 5-minute walk of a park
Each square is 1 in 100 residents: green lives within 400 m of a public park, garden or playing field (Census 2021 output areas against OS Open Greenspace).
About 200 people live further than that. Playing fields count, so a park within reach isn’t always one with paths or trees.
