Public and Private Aquatics Facilities in the City of Greensboro

The table above shows a listing of private aquatics facilities and swim clubs in Greensboro. Overall comparisons of public and private facilities reveal the majority of public facilities are located in the southeast section of the city. The north and southwest sections of the city have private aquatics facilities but lack public, city-owned facilities. However, these areas have low SVI ratings, medium to high income levels and high vehicle access. Residents living in these areas are likely to have access and the ability to pay fees associated with use of private aquatics facilities. YMCA facilities are located in the southeast section of the city. The cost of memberships at YMCAs may create financial challenges for some families unable to pay fees which may limit access to YMCA facilities. However, some YMCA facilities base membership fees on income to provide affordable programs to lower income residents living in high SVI areas.

Establishing partnerships between the city and private aquatics facilities who can provide needs-based scholarships may increase affordability of programs.
