Culver City Parks Task 8.1 Final Plan - Flipbook - Page 58
COMMUNITY-WIDE PUBLIC SURVEY RESULTS
The Parks Plan team administered a communitywide public survey at the beginning of the
planning process from May through August 2024.
The 19-question survey took respondents less
than ten minutes to complete, and they had the
option to state their name and contact information
or be anonymous. The survey was available in a
printed version that was utilized at community
meetings, pop up events, and in-person activities,
and a virtual version that was shared through the
city email distribution and available through QR
codes on collateral materials.
The survey provided insights as to the uses of parks
and facilities, interests, areas for improvement,
and infrastructure and program priorities of the
community. Results indicated that most park
users visit parks several times a week or daily,
primarily walk to the park, and appreciate their
accessibility and sense of community they foster.
Of the all survey respondents, 85% were Culver City
residents, with 30% having lived in Culver City for
15+ years. Veterans Memorial Park, Culver City Park
and the Culver City Bike Path were shown to be
the most used parks.
When asked about what people like about Culver
City Parks, the top three answers were Special
Events (such as Fiesta La Ballona or movies in the
park), Aquatics and Adult recreational activities
(such as ceramics, tennis, iaido, fencing, fitness,
or yoga). Top requests for park improvements
were maintenance, biodiversity and tree canopy,
and park programming and offerings including
public and performing arts. Time spent in
nature, active exercise and sports and shade and
cooling were indicated at the top benefits of
PRCS. Overall, the survey input illuminated the
value that parks bring to the Culver City community,
and emphasized key recommendations to guide
the future of Culver City parks.
