Outdoors grade

How much outdoors does Hull have?

On conserved land, trails, park land and how close residents live to a park, Hull is ahead of 58% of U.S. towns, #242 of 362 in Wisconsin. Park acres per resident hold the grade up; conserved land pulls it down.

Water is 13% of Hull’s area (4 of 31 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 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.
