Community centers play an important role in urban planning by providing a central point for community engagement and social interaction. They serve as a place for people to meet and discuss issues related to the neighborhood, propose ideas for improvement, and organize civic activities. Community centers also provide educational and recreational programs for people of all ages promoting socialization and personal growth. In addition, community centers often serve as distribution centers in times of emergency, such as natural disasters or pandemics. By offering a hub for community collaboration, community centers can help shape urban planning decisions that benefit the residents' needs and interests.
