Hawaii towns of 2,500+ (93)Ahead of 52%

Hawaii towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 14%; the U.S., 4%), so Mililani Town’s 8% is ahead of 36% of Hawaii towns, while its trails per square mile lead 28% of them.

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.
