Photography credits & licences.
Photography here comes in two kinds. Where we could, photos of a specific public place — an area, beach or mall — are the actual location, licensed for reuse. Everything else — generic interiors, individual school campuses and pet businesses — is illustrative: it shows the typeof place and carries a small “Illustrative” tag on the page. We don't own any of these images; each is licensed under a Creative Commons licence or is in the public domain, and we self-host a copy with attribution below.
