Hawaii towns of 2,500+ (93)Ahead of 76%
Hawaii towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 14%; the U.S., 4%), so Ewa Beach’s 13% is ahead of 45% of Hawaii towns, while its trails per square mile lead 91% of them.
Water is 27% of Ewa Beach’s area (0 of 2 square miles), so every share here is of land; over land and water together, the conserved share would read 10%.
How sure. Graded on any three of the four inputs instead, the letter would range from B to A+. 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.
