Outdoor routines community signal

Playground asset presence across Calgary communities

Relative presence of current City playground-equipment records and deduplicated mapped playground sites inside the official community boundary.

This page compares one public-data signal at a time. It is a shortlist tool rather than an overall ranking, and every leading record links to a full community profile with the underlying evidence and local context.

Published formula

Mapped playground-site density 40%, mapped-site count 25%, current-equipment density 20%, represented equipment age classes 10%, and inclusive-equipment density 5%.

Sites are deduplicated by the City playground-equipment asset code and equipment points are assigned to official community boundaries. This is not a routed-access, condition, quality, safety, supervision or accessibility rating. Inclusive flags identify source records, not whole-playground accessibility.

Evidence used

This is a direct comparison. The current ingredients include City playground-equipment points, deduplicated playground asset codes, equipment age classes, inclusive-equipment flags, official community boundaries.
