谷歌新出炉的报告显示，不出所料，美国民众宅在家的时间更长了，各种公共场合的人群活动量都大幅下降。
但有一个场所却例外，呈现两极分化的状态，这就是公园，美国很多地方公园的人流量竟然大大增加了。
根据“访问次数和逗留时间”所得出的住宅区活动量增加了12%，购物中心、博物馆和餐厅等零售点和娱乐场所的活动量减少了47%，杂货店和药店的活动量也减少了22%，车站的活动量减少了多达51%。
Activity, measured by “visits and length of stay,” is up 12% at residential locations, while it’s down 47% at retail and recreation sites such as malls, museums, and restaurants. It’s also down 22% at grocery and pharmacy retailers, and down a whopping 51% at transit stations.
这些变化参照的是1月3日至2月6日之间的数值。报告中的百分比的变化是基于上周日的活动量得出的。
The shifts are relative to a baseline measured between January 3 and February 6. The percent changes in the report were based on visits as recently as last Sunday.
有趣的是，虽然各州的人在大多数非住宅区的活动量均有所减少，包括零售点和娱乐场所、车站、药店和杂货店、工作场所，但有一个地点他们的活动量却不一样，那就是——公园。
Interestingly, while all states saw a decline in activity at most nonresidential categories, including retail and recreation, transit stations, pharmacy and grocery, and workplaces, they were divided on the use of one type of location—parks.
很多州的人去公园的少了（纽约的公园活动量减少了47%，得克萨斯州减少了27%，内华达州减少了38%），但数据显示其他州去公园的人增加了：北达科他州的公园活动量增加了73%，犹他州增加了26%，南达科他州和俄亥俄州增加了一倍多，增长率分别为126% 和117%。
Many states saw a decline in park activity (numbers were down 47% in New York, 27% in Texas, and 38% in Nevada), but others, according to the data, saw a rise in park use: North Dakota park activity was up 73%, Utah saw a rise of 26%, and park activity in South Dakota and Ohio more than doubled, increasing by 126% and 117%, respectively.
甚至连出台了在家隔离的规定的州，一般也允许人们独自去公园锻炼，或者跟同住者同行，只要和他人保持距离就可以，以避免病毒传播。
也有一些行政辖区因为拥挤，限制了进入公园、海滩和游乐场的人数。
