US cities with the largest park systems

[UberEatsDriver]

Why do they separate out Alexandria from DC? It's a suburb. About to the same size as Chicago's Naperville. It's odd being included with these other cities.

Anyway, Chicago has some great parks. I would've thought NYC would be higher on the list.

I’m actually more surprised that nyc, Baltimore and Philly have more green spaces per cap than ATL

Philly has the largest in city park in America how its not on the list is crazy

 

[Canada Goose]

Really


I guess alot of them are in the affluent places in North Bronx?

Pelham Bay Park is the largest park in NYC (even larger than Central Park).


Van courtandt park is pretty large as well.

NE Ohio Representing strong in the area, we have fantastic parks!

There’s parks everywhere in the Bronx

Some of the biggest parks like Claremont, Crotona, Saint Mary’s are surrounded by the hood

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

Raleigh-Durham area isn't on the list?

I don't think forest =/= park.

For instance Chicago has large swaths of forest preserves all around the city. They couldn't possibly be taking them into consideration otherwise it would be higher on the list.

Cincinnati above Seattle and Portland? Idc what facts you bring I do not believe that

I didn’t post the green space link yet and actually Chicago is very high on that list as well

Portland has absolutely incredible parks.

It's not just pure acreage, they included other factors like amenities and such.


This was a really-good movie set in one of Portland's parks and based on a true story:

Suprised Seattle is that low.

But you can goto the arboretum with Hundred/thousand year old trees just 3miles from downtown.

It's alot of green space in this city which I love.
