A Community Park in SimCity

Parks come in a variety of sizes and provide a place for residents to relax and a location for the homeless to gather. These spaces can spruce up your neighborhood, attracting wealthier Sims.

Parks Stats

On the Info tab of the Parks section in the Parks and Culture menu, you can find important data regarding your city greens. The gauge displays your city’s overall desirability, while the numbers next to that show the number of park buildings and patrons, the total number of homeless and how many of them are in parks, and how many Simoleons your parks are costing the city per hour.
