Abstract
The freedom of children to explore their own neighborhood or city without adult supervision (their independent mobility) is explored using data from cities in Australia, New Zealand, England and Germany. The significance of this mobility is discussed, including its importance not only for children, but also for their parents, the wider environment and the community.
