The last time I reviewed this quiet little park in Azusa, Zacatecas Park, I gave it 3 stars. But since then, I have changed my mind. It has pretty much stayed the same, sans a few fitness structure updates.
The main reason why my impression of Zacatecas has improved is because the *OTHER* parks that I also use, they have degraded in quality.
My former park of choice for getting my steps in has evolved to have quite a homelessness issue to address. Literally, every single time I visit this previous park of choice, there is a number of vagrants. At times, there are even multiple groups, like cliques in a high school cafeteria. I find myself more on guard while in the area, instead of fully relaxing and enjoying the amenities.
So by comparison, Zacatecas now feels pretty great! Located in a residential area, I feel comfortable coming here with my family for a warm sunny stroll. (Or a chilly, brisk walk in my thick jacket during the winter!) I feel safe here. The area's mostly well-kept and clean. I sometimes see family having birthday parties, barbeque get-together, it's all good vibes.
And... AND...!!!
Now it's got like THREE Pokemon Go gyms here now. THREE. Say whattt.
Upgrading it from 3 to 4 stars. Whoo! read more
