Text
In a study by Mika R. Moran, Daniel A. Rodriguez, and colleagues, residents of Bogotá, Colombia, and Fortaleza, Brazil, were surveyed about parks in their cities. Of the 1,121 respondents from Bogotá, 71.9% indicated that they use the city's parks, and of the 938 respondents from Fortaleza, 35.7% indicated using city parks. Given that the percentage of Bogotá respondents who reported having access to desired nonpark amenities near parks was much lower than that reported by Fortaleza respondents, the difference in park use can't be explained by Bogotá residents having more access to desired nonpark amenities near parks.
