According to CityParksAlliance.org, urban parks provide access to recreational opportunities, increase property values, spur local economies, combat crime, and protect cities from environmental impact.
But the reality is that in many cases, tax dollars are paying for public lands that are rarely used. We can all do your our part in keeping our public parks safe, clean, and accessible by donating to causes that increase neighborhood engagement and reduce crime, joining advocacy groups that help build awareness and equity, or even participating in park clean up days. As the saying goes, it takes a village to create a community.
