1.23 Feeling of Safety in Parks
Main Trend and Observation
The data shows a fluctuating trend in overall satisfaction with safety in parks over the years. From 2016 to 2018, there is a noticeable decline in average satisfaction, dropping from 61.25% in 2016 to 55.92% in 2018. However, in 2019, satisfaction levels recovered slightly to 61.58%, followed by a significant increase in 2020, reaching 68.37%. This rise may indicate improvements in safety measures or public perception during this period.
One key observation is that safety satisfaction is generally higher during the day across all years compared to night, where ratings are consistently lower, suggesting ongoing concerns about nighttime safety. Desert parks also tend to have lower safety ratings than neighborhood or city parks, particularly at night.
The data suggests that while daytime safety satisfaction improved after 2018, nighttime safety remains a persistent concern.
