Behind most U.S. towns. What drives it
What kind of outdoors town is Clinton?
Read from the map. The page puts what stands out first.
How much outdoors does Clinton have?
On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Clinton is behind most U.S. towns. All four inputs are below most U.S. towns; conserved land comes closest.
Few Louisiana towns conserve much land (a typical one, 1%; the U.S., 4%), so Clinton’s under 1% is ahead of 5% of Louisiana towns, while its trails per square mile lead 8% of them.

Questions about parks and trails in Clinton
How much of Clinton is conserved land?
under 1% of its land, against a typical 1% for a Louisiana town and 4% nationally (PAD-US). Conserved doesn’t always mean open to visitors: easements are usually private land.
How much outdoors does Clinton have?
Behind most U.S. towns on the Outdoors grade. 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.
