Assessing urban community parks from an age-friendly perspective: a multi-criteria decision-making approach.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

With the acceleration of population ageing, community parks have become vital spaces for older adults' daily activities. The age-friendliness of their spatial environment directly impacts the well-being of the older adult population. Scientifically evaluating the age-friendliness of community parks and proposing optimization strategies is crucial to promoting the physical and mental well-being of the older adults and enhancing the quality of urban public services.

Methods

This study established an evaluation index system for the age-friendliness of community parks through field surveys, literature review, expert screening, and statistical validation. User perception data were collected via questionnaires, and a combination of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP)
