Located in northern Los Angeles County, the City of Santa Clarita has a population of about 229,000, making it the third-most populous city in the county. On April 6, 2024, the City held a grand opening for its 38th park, Skyline Ranch Park. The ceremony featured a brief speaking program followed by the official ribbon-cutting. The 10.5-acre park includes a variety of amenities, including a baseball field, basketball courts, multi-purpose field, a shaded playground with inclusive elements, a half-mile walking path, tennis/pickleball courts, picnic tables, and a brand-new restroom building. The park also offers panoramic views of Santa Clarita.

Skyline Ranch Park is located in a new residential subdivision comprised of more than 1,200 single-family homes. Development for the park began in December 2022, with developer Tri Pointe partnering with the City to create this park. The City of Santa Clarita operates and maintains a wide range of parks to meet the growing and diverse needs of its residents. To learn more, please visit the City's website.
