How much outdoors does Spiro have?

On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Spiro is behind most U.S. towns. All four inputs are below most U.S. towns; conserved land comes closest.

Oklahoma towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 7%; the U.S., 4%), so Spiro’s under 1% is ahead of 1% of Oklahoma towns, while its trails per square mile lead 6% of them.

NoteFew parks or trails are mapped in Spiro. OpenStreetMap is mapped by volunteers and coverage varies from town to town, so a town with unmapped parks scores low on them.
How sure. Graded on any three of the four inputs instead, the letter would still be D−. Trails and many small parks come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by volunteers, so coverage varies from town to town; the half mile is a straight line from each census block, so a river or highway in the way isn’t counted against it.

Questions about parks and trails in Spiro

How much of Spiro is conserved land?

under 1% of its land, against a typical 7% for an Oklahoma town and 4% nationally (PAD-US). Conserved doesn’t always mean open to visitors: easements are usually private land.

Where can I bike in Spiro?

0.5 miles of bike routes are on the map: 0.5 of off-road paths.

Is there public land near Spiro?

25 acres of parks and open public land lie inside Spiro or within 10 miles of it (PAD-US), almost none of it inside the town line.

How much outdoors does Spiro 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.
