How much outdoors does Miami have?
On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Miami is ahead of 42% of U.S. towns. The share of residents near a park holds the grade up; conserved land pulls it down.
Arizona towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 14%; the U.S., 4%), so Miami’s under 1% is ahead of 3% of Arizona towns, while its trails per square mile lead 31% of them.
