Prevention magazine and Walkable Communities Inc. recently named Henderson the sixth-best walking city in its Best Walking Cities of 2007 list.

"We have a beautiful city, and we want people to be able to get outside and experience all the opportunities that are unique to Henderson," Mayor James Gibson said in a statement provided by the city. "Our parks, trails and recreational amenities add value to our city, but more importantly, they promote healthy lifestyles for our residents."
