National Neighborhood Data Archive (NaNDA): Parks by Census Tract and ZIP Code Tabulation Area, United States, 2018 and 2022

Prior research has demonstrated that access to parks and greenspace can have a positive impact on many aspects of and contributors to health, including physical activity levels (Kaczynski et al., 2007), healthy aging (Finlay, 2015), and sense of well-being (Larson et al., 2016). Neighborhood parks can also contribute to sense of community (Gómez, 2015). These datasets describe the number and area of parks in each census tract or each ZIP code tabulation area (ZCTA) in the United States. Measures include the total number of parks, park area, and proportion of park area within each census tract or ZCTA.

先前的研究业已证实，公园和绿地资源的可及性对健康的多方面及影响因素具有积极影响，包括体力活动水平（Kaczynski 等人，2007年），健康老龄化（Finlay，2015年），以及幸福感（Larson 等人，2016年）。社区公园亦有助于增强社区归属感（Gómez，2015年）。本数据集描述了美国每个普查区或ZIP代码统计区域（ZCTA）内公园的数量和面积。具体指标包括公园总数、公园面积以及每个普查区或ZCTA内公园面积所占比例。
