Few parks or trails are on the map in Haskell
0.1 miles of mapped trail cross Haskell. 8 acres are parks and preserves, 2.0 per 1,000 residents. 33% of residents live within a half mile of a park.
Ahead of 10% of U.S. towns · #114 of 123 in Arkansas. What drives it
How much outdoors does Haskell have?
On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Haskell is ahead of 10% of U.S. towns, #114 of 123 in Arkansas. All four inputs are below most U.S. towns; the share of residents near a park comes closest.
Few Arkansas towns conserve much land (a typical one, 1%; the U.S., 4%), so Haskell’s under 1% is ahead of 28% of Arkansas towns, while its trails per square mile lead 7% of them.

8 conserved acres
under 1% of Haskell’s land. Who manages Haskell’s conserved land, from the USGS Protected Areas Database. Approximate, because parcels can overlap.
| Parcel (PAD-US) | Managed by | Acres | Public access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Haskell Community Center Park Local Park | Town or city | 8 | Open |
2 lakes & rivers
0.0 miles of bike routes
Bike lanes are often missing from the map in smaller towns, so that number is likely low.
Includes school and college facilities, which aren’t always open to the public.
The walking year in Haskell
NOAA’s 1991–2020 normals for the town and the daylight at its latitude. Outlined months have long days, highs of 59 to 86 °F and little rain for the place.

September is the driest month (3.6 in) and July the warmest (highs of 93 °F). 5.7 inches fall in April, the wettest month. Summer highs reach 93 °F, too hot for the outline. The climate in Haskell →
Questions about parks and trails in Haskell
How much of Haskell is conserved land?
under 1% of its land, against a typical 1% for an Arkansas town and 4% nationally (PAD-US). Conserved doesn’t always mean open to visitors: easements are usually private land.
Is there public land near Haskell?
521 acres of parks and open public land lie inside Haskell or within 10 miles of it (PAD-US), 8 of them inside the city line.
How much outdoors does Haskell have?
Ahead of 10% of U.S. towns on the Outdoors grade, #114 of 123 in Arkansas. The grade combines the share of land that is conserved, miles of mapped trail per square mile of land, park acres per 1,000 residents and the share of residents within a half mile of a park. It’s a character grade, so it isn’t part of the overall grade. How it works.
