This section describes Sharjah as a place. It contains no media data: the campaign records market at country level only, so there is no sub-emirate geography to map and no layer here implies where advertising was targeted.

Walking access to parks

share of residential Sharjah within a walk of a park

How much of the housing in Sharjah sits within a 5, 10 or 15 minute walk of a park. The 15 minute band is the widely used 15-minute-city test, and the shorter walks sit against WHO guidance that green space should be within roughly 300 metres of home — so this is a claim a government audience can benchmark, not a number invented here.
