Study: Florida Cities Ranked Least Walkable

ORLANDO(CBSMiami/AP) — Florida cities have made it to the list of least walkable metro areas, according to a new study.

The report released last week by The George Washington School of Business puts Orlando No. 30 out of the 30 largest metro areas in the country when it comes to having walkable urban places.

Orlando wasn't the only Florida city at the bottom of the list.

Tampa was the third-least walkable major metro area, and Miami was the eighth-least walkable city.

The study is optimistic that Orlando will have more walkable places in the future.

It placed Orlando No. 18 out of 30 on its list of rankings projected for the future.
