Neighborhood parks are the most convenient places close to homes. They not only provide leisure and recreation but also provide habitat for many species; moreover, they purify the air, beautify the landscape and enhance the sense of community. In this study, we observe and investigate 3 neighborhood parks of the Wenshan district in Taipei city, and conduct questionnaire surveys on the residents. The results showed that about 50 percent of the residents used neighborhood parks because of the closeness to their homes. The most common activities were running, passing-by and conveniently stopping over. About 30 percent or more of the residents didn't like to use the parks because of too many dog waste and the dirty environment. According to the Chiq-square test, there was a relation between the residents' social status and their park usage in terms of engaged activities, reasons of using and dissatisfaction. The relation also differs by park.
