What is the relationship between urban structure and patterns of urban amenities?

We are currently examining the relationship between urban structure and the distribution of amenities in 380 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) in the U.S.  Do more polycentric MSAs tend to have more equitable distributions of urban amenities compared with their more monocentric counterparts? 

1. What is the relationship between urban spatial patterns and patterns of retail amenities? We utilize a point of interest database (Safegraph) which categorizes retail amenities into several different categories (comparison, convenient, leisure, or catering)  

2. What is the relationship between urban spatial patterns and the distribution of parks and open spaces?
