Park Access in Portage County

Jennifer Mapes

This map was created at the request of and in collaboration with the League of Women Voters Kent to localize the concept of park equity. We worked together to establish what characteristics should be mapped, what counted as a “park,” and to field-check the availability of amenities in each park. The final map informed the League’s position on parks and recreation in Kent and Portage County.
