Parks and Recreation Metrics
The Lewisville Parks and Recreation Department's mission statement is in order to create a thriving community through nature and play, we will become the best Parks and Recreation Department in the State of Texas. We will achieve this vision and mission by:Â

Percentage of Residents that Live within a 10-Minute Walk of a Park
This metric tracks the percentage of Lewisville residents that live within a 10-minute walk to a park.Â
While our current value is over the national average of 55%, Lewisville is making plans to increase this number to 85% by 2025 and to 100% by 2035.
Across all age groups, greater access to parks is associated with lower body mass index and reduced risk of obesity. Children's use of neighborhood parks increases by 400% when parks are closer to home. Our goal as a City is to provide parks within 10 minutes walk for all citizens.Â
