Confirmed from Edward Vincent Jr. Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
This 55-acre park has multiple playgrounds, plus athletic facilities, picnic areas & a pool.

Edward Vincent is not the prettiest park nor the most accessible but when you walk through the park and observe the people who live around here, you'll feel it emanating from them -- their love of this park. as if it too were a close friend or relative.
A great park! Morningside High School had its reunion there. We used the walkway and grassy hill areas. Very nice. The grass is well maintained. The two swimming pools were open and had people enjoying the cool clear water. I parked near the playground area and saw nice equipment for kids to play on with families.
I absolutely love this large, family friendly park. Great for walking, running, picnicking or playing. The squirrels are friendly so please be nice. Weekends are busy since there are two baseball/softball fields, a football/soccer field, a bike track and a basketball court. Bathrooms are clean and throughout the park.
If your ever in Inglewood you have to stop and take a walk at this park .Its great for kids with multiple play grounds and plenty of room to walk your dog.
