Few Indiana towns conserve much land (a typical one, 2%; the U.S., 4%), so Foxcliff Estates’ under 1% is ahead of 7% of Indiana towns, while its trails per square mile lead 99% of them.

Water is 7% of Foxcliff Estates’ area (0 of 2 square miles), so every share here is of land; over land and water together, the conserved share would read under 1%.

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.
