How much outdoors does Euharlee have?

Georgia towns of 2,500+ (264)Ahead of 59%

Few Georgia towns conserve much land (a typical one, 2%; the U.S., 4%), so Euharlee’s 3% is ahead of 58% of Georgia towns, while its trails per square mile lead 34% of them.

How sure. Graded on any three of the four inputs instead, the letter would range from C+ to B−. Trails and many small parks come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by volunteers, so coverage varies from town to town; the half mile is a straight line from each census block, so a river or highway in the way isn’t counted against it.

How much outdoors does Euharlee have?

Ahead of 45% of U.S. towns on the Outdoors grade, #110 of 264 in Georgia.
