Dallas Park and Recreation Department and Trust for Public Land to Host News Conference to announce Dallas’ 2025 ParkScore Ranking

What

Mayor Eric L. Johnson will join Dallas Park and Recreation and the national nonprofit Trust for Public Land (TPL) to announce where Dallas ranks among the nation’s park systems. ParkScore is a national ranking of the top 100 most populous U.S. cities' park systems based on five park categories: equity, access, investment, acreage, and amenities. It serves as a powerful tool to help communities gain information to help them close the park equity gap. Join the City of Dallas for an update on the city’s efforts to become “Greenest and Greatest City in Texas.”
