Good morning, everyone. Today we'll continue our discussion on urban planning. One key issue is the provision of public parks. While many cities focus on large central parks, recent research suggests that smaller, neighborhood-based green spaces are more effective for daily use. A study in Melbourne found that residents within a 10-minute walk of a small park visited it four times more often than those who had to travel to a large park. Furthermore, these small parks encouraged social interaction among neighbors, which improved community cohesion. However, the study also noted that maintenance costs are higher per square meter for small parks, so city councils need to allocate budgets carefully.
