Shape of community parks linked to mortality risk among residents

While the discovery might sound strange, but the shape of community parks is linked to the mortality risk of residents living around them. Some community parks are square, a reflection of the city block they're located at and a new study has found that irregularly shaped parks reduce the mortality risk of residents living near them. They found that residents in census tracts with more connected, aggregated and complex-shaped green spaces had a lower mortality risk. Researchers explained that the complexity in the shape of the park was positively associated with lower mortality risk.
