Columbus Ranks Poorly For Its Public Parks

A national land preservation group ranks Columbus 47th on its list of the 60 largest U.S. cities for its parks system. The rankings by the non-profit Trust for Public Land are based on the number of residents who live within a half mile of a park, average park size, and the amount of money each city spends on its parks. Minneapolis is ranked in first place.
