LessMore
Pennsylvania towns of 2,500+ (1,037)Ahead of 12%
Pennsylvania towns conserve more land than most (a typical one, 8%; the U.S., 4%), so Aliquippa’s 1% is ahead of 8% of Pennsylvania towns, while its trails per square mile lead 39% of them.
Water is 9% of Aliquippa’s area (0 of 5 square miles), so every share here is of land; over land and water together, the conserved share would read 1%.
How sure. Graded on any three of the four inputs instead, the letter would range from C to C+. 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.
