Neighborhood and Community Parks The following maps illustrates the service areas for Neighborhood and Community parks found within the DeSoto Parks System. Service areas are consistent with the guidelines established by the National Recreation and Park Association. The Special-Use Parks and Facilities don’t have defined service areas as they are considered to offer amenities and services that appeal to the entire resident population of the City. The Open Spaces also don’t have defined services areas. In some cases, the actual service area of any park may be larger if the park includes amenities of regional appeal. Smaller service areas are also possible where major roadways act as barriers to park access. The service areas identified are as follows: Neighborhood Park - 1/4 Mile (5 Minute Walk) Community Park - Up to 3 Miles
