Outdoors grade

How much outdoors does Landen have?

On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Landen is ahead of 86% of U.S. towns, #87 of 993 in Ohio. All four inputs are above most U.S. towns; trail miles rank highest, park acres per resident lowest.

How sure. Graded on any three of the four inputs instead, the letter would range from A− 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.
