More specifically, locations "were determined by analyzing key demographic statistics including population density, median household income, number and percentage of residents in poverty, and the number of existing prague hotel parks in a half-mile radius." Many of the parks will be built on property left vacant by foreclosure , which means the city can get funding from the federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program. Other funding prague hotel comes from an assortment of local, state, federal, private, nonprofit, and corporate sources.
