How much outdoors does Mannford have?
On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Mannford is ahead of 84% of U.S. towns, #5 of 131 in Oklahoma. All four inputs are above most U.S. towns; park acres per resident rank highest, the share of residents near a park lowest.
Oklahoma towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 7%; the U.S., 4%), so Mannford’s 11% is ahead of 71% of Oklahoma towns, while its trails per square mile lead 85% of them.
Water is 22% of Mannford’s area (2 of 10 square miles), so every share here is of land; over land and water together, the conserved share would read 9%.
