What Neighborhoods are “TOD” to You?
14
I’m a TOD: Koreatown
• 40% walk, bike, or take
transit to work
• WalkScore of 90 / 100
• Vibrant street life with
small businesses,
restaurants, daily needs
• Residents of different
incomes, ethnicities
• Opportunities to walk
more, be healthier
I’m a TOD: Koreatown
• 20% increase
in income
since 2000
• 9x increase in
property
values
• A lot of new
housing is not
affordable
I’m a TOD: Boyle Heights
• Easy to walk to shopping, schools, etc.
• Convenient bus routes and light rail –
1/3 take transit, walk, or bike to work
• Not very much new development, but
neighborhoods offer benefits of TOD
I’m a TOD: Boyle Heights
• Low income renters and small businesses
may not be able to afford to stay
• Freeways a major barrier to getting
around
