Outdoors grade

How much outdoors does Worth Township have?

On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Worth Township is ahead of 39% of U.S. towns, #275 of 593 in Indiana. The share of residents near a park holds the grade up; conserved land pulls it down.

Indiana towns of 2,500+ (593)Ahead of 54%

Few Indiana towns conserve much land (a typical one, 2%; the U.S., 4%), so Worth Township’s under 1% is ahead of 23% of Indiana towns, while its trails per square mile lead 35% 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.
