LANSING PARK STUDY
Methodology
IThe method used to prepare this report followed two tracks:
1. The collection and reorganization of participant 1990 US Census Data; and
2. The mapping of the city parks with the 1990 census tracts overlaying them.
1990 US Census data were assembled for the City of Lansing and for all the census
tracts within the city. The data were sorted and reformatted to provide the best information
for park influence analysis. City-wide data were established as the baseline. The data were
then analyzed for outstanding characteristics and for unusual or unique features and any such
observations were summarized by census tract.
The consultants defined each city park by its size, equipment,
t, facilities, and location
as either Neighborhood, Community, or City-wide.' The parks were then plotted with the
appropriate areas of influence and overlaid with a map of the census tracts. The tracts
affected by the parks were identified, the data assembled, then analyzed to produce a "Park
Profile Brief'. (Some parks, such as Potter Park, have a much greater geographical area of
influence. However, the analysis of regional data was beyond the scope of this report.)
The initial park areas of influence used in this report were as follows:
Mini & Neighborhood parks, 1/2 - 1 mile radius; Community 1-2 mile radius; and City-wide.
The definition established for Community parks proved to be unworkable for purposes of
seriously examining the differentiating community factors for a park with the community
designation.
A two mile park influence radius is simply too large an area for making comparisons
to the City of Lansing city-wide base values. A circle with a radius of two miles covers an
area of approximately 12.6 square miles. All of Lansing is 34.1 square miles. Each
Community park circle covered more than 1/3 of the land mass of the community. A
Community park could easily "capture" an influence area composed of an even more
disproportionate number of total residents or census tracts. For instance, the Miller Road
influence circle captured 12 census tracts and slightly more than 36 percent of the city's
residents. The Comstock analysis included 24 tracts and was almost 46 percent of the City's
population. Aggregations of this magnitude eliminate those unique or unusual characteristics
upon which to focus a particular park's development program.

u
11,
As a result of these findings, the consultants examined areas surrounding each
Community park which could, in their judgment, represent the physical community that
would define the park area for planning purposes. The radius established for this alternative
was approximately 3/4 of a mile. It represented an area that, on average, captured the
influence of those four to six census tracts immediately surrounding the target park. This is
a closer approximation of the true area of influence for these parks. It is the area that
defines their physical setting. It is the area that sets the tone for anyone traveling through
the area to reach the park, and finally, the local resident population serves as the closest user
base for the park.
To maintain proportional integrity, the consultants also analyzed the neighborhood
parks on this basis, using a one-third mile radius.
Indicators for most of the elements of the "Profile Briefs" are straight forward, e.g.
income and poverty indices; but some are less direct. Neighborhood stability was measured
by the number of years in residency in a particular dwelling unit. Mobility was a measure of
both the number of cars and the number of disabled individuals in a tract or park area.
Although the logic of both, especially the latter, is somewhat tenuous, the information is
valuable for planning, especially planning for areas where a higher percentage of persons
have no car, or for areas with disproportionate numbers of disabled persons.
The briefs were worded to provide snapshot views of the tracts and park influence
areas. When an area of concern or interest is established, the users should refer to the base
data for a more complete analysis. Also, no attempt was made to analyze the data in terms
of state of national norms. All comparisons are to Lansing City census data.

Recreating Park & QMn Space Standards & Guidelines, 1983: The Athletic Institute,
Planning Areas & Facilities for Health Physical Education & Recreation, 1966: and other
