I think it's very regional. Libraries and parks are going to get the first cuts when local government tightens its belts, they're often save havens for the unhoused or those otherwise let down by society, and together that means in many areas they're seen as maybe not unsafe, but not places overprotective parents want their kids going.

Absolutely. In fact, I have found that areas with the most disposable income also get the best city funding. So the people who can afford to pay for third spaces (restaurants, clubs, golfing) also have the nicest local parks and public spaces.

In my city, the low-income area local parks are literally paved with concrete and next to train tracks, busy streets and/or factories. It's utterly bullshit
