Nevada City Ranks Among The Best Dog Park Cities

Author Kayla Morgan

Every dog owner hopes to have a great dog park close to their home. A place where their dogs can romp freely, chasing balls, making new four-legged pals, and leaving paw prints on the hearts of everyone they encounter. LawnStarter uncovered the top cities for dog parks in 2023, just in time for National Lost Pet Prevention Month in July. They compared 98 of the biggest U.S. cities based on access, quality, and climate. More specifically, they factored in the number of dog parks per 100,000 two-legged residents, visitor ratings, and historical weather data, among eight total metrics.

Las Vegas makes it into the top 10 for best dog park city.

Coming in at No. 8 on the list of best dog park cities is Las Vegas. The study recognized the city for its excellent access to dog parks and its overall quality. However, when it comes to climate, Las Vegas didn’t fare as well, receiving lower marks. Above Las Vegas, you’ll find Henderson ranking in at spot number 3.

Their ranking of the top 10 cities showcases a blend of large and small East and West Coast destinations that reign supreme. Among these is Boise, Idaho, claiming the No. 1 spot, followed closely by San Francisco at No. 2. Other notable cities in the mix include Arlington, Virginia, ranking at No. 5, and New York City at No. 6. These cities offer quality dog parks. However, it’s worth noting that their climates may vary, with some not necessarily ideal for our four-legged pals.

The study showed that half of the bottom ten cities on their list are located in the South, with Garland, Texas, landing in last place. The other five cities are scattered across the Midwest and coasts, including Cleveland at No. 97, Santa Clarita, California at No. 91, and Newark, New Jersey at No. 90. Unfortunately, these cities have limited access, particularly when it comes to top-notch dog parks. They also tend to have some of the least dog-friendly climates says the study. However, there are a few exceptions in the bunch.
