Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Denison employees live an average of 11 miles from campus. Nearly half of all Denison employees live within 6 miles of campus. Campus is located on top of a large hill and is the highest point in the community. This often discourages people from biking and walking. Denison maintains an internal password protected website where most of this information resides. Public access web pages have limited information on this topic.
