One aspect of a sustainable construction project is its location and its connectivity with its surrounding community. Earlham's LEED certified buildings are within half a mile of a neighborhood with an average density of 10 units per acre net. The buildings are located within half a mile of at least 10 basic services, including a supermarket, restaurant, school, convenience stores, library, fitness center, park, place of worship, and funeral home. There is pedestrian access between the buildings and these services.
