Few parks or trails are on the map in Haskell
0.1 miles of mapped trail cross Haskell. 26% of residents live within a half mile of a park. 2% of Haskell’s land is conserved, about 37 acres.

How much outdoors does Haskell have?
On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Haskell is ahead of 24% of U.S. towns, #480 of 642 in Texas. Park acres per resident hold the grade up; trail miles pull it down.

Texas towns of 2,500+ (642)Ahead of 25%
Few Texas towns conserve much land (a typical one, 2%; the U.S., 4%), so Haskell’s 2% is ahead of 48% of Texas towns, while its trails per square mile lead 16% of them.
NoteFew parks or trails are mapped in Haskell. 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 range from C− to C. 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.

Who protects it
37 conserved acres
2% of Haskell’s land. Who manages Haskell’s conserved land, from the USGS Protected Areas Database. Approximate, because parcels can overlap.

Good to know
Conserved doesn’t always mean open to visitors. 1 acre is a conservation easement, usually private land. The walks above are places people visit.

Biking & sports
0.0 miles of bike routes
Bike lanes are often missing from the map in smaller towns, so that number is likely low.

When to get out
April is the best month for walking 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.

January is the driest month (1.1 in) and July the warmest (highs of 97 °F). 3.8 inches fall in June, the wettest month. Summer highs reach 97 °F, too hot for the outline. The climate in Haskell →
Questions about parks and trails in Haskell
How much of Haskell is conserved land?
2% of its land, against a typical 2% for a Texas town and 4% nationally (PAD-US). Conserved doesn’t always mean open to visitors: easements are usually private land.
Are dogs allowed on Haskell’s trails?
Haskell Municipal Park doesn’t have dog rules recorded on the map; check the signs at the trailhead.
Is there public land near Haskell?
289 acres of parks and open public land lie inside Haskell or within 10 miles of it (PAD-US), 38 of them inside the city line.
How much outdoors does Haskell have?
Ahead of 24% of U.S. towns on the Outdoors grade, #480 of 642 in Texas. 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.
