Ranking for the 100 most-populated US cities by comparing 14 measures across 5 park categories: equity, access, investment, amenities and acreage. Points are awarded on a relative basis, based on how a city compares to the 100 largest U.S. cities. Points are assigned by breaking the data range established by the national sample into brackets, with the lowest bracket receiving the least points and the highest bracket receiving the most points. Each city’s total points—out of a maximum of 500—are normalized to a rating of up to 100.
Why is this important?
Parks are essential for public health, climate resilience and strong connected communities.
