Tip

Not every Houston neighborhood has equal access to parks. Compare park acreage per kid by ZIP.

Houston's parks and public-space datasets map green space, amenities, and maintenance across a sprawling city. Tracking where parks exist (and where they don't) highlights equity gaps and opportunities to bring trees, trails, and play areas to underserved neighborhoods.
