What kind of outdoors village is Tremadog?
Read from the data: what stands out first, good and bad.
Tremadog’s strongest suit is protected countryside on the doorstep, followed by its historic parks. Where it falls short is how far some homes are from a park.
Few Tremadog 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 700 people live further than that. Playing fields count, so a park within reach isn’t always one with paths or trees.
