How We Rated Cities
As part of this category, we analyzed four areas:
Many cities tied for number one (!), with a perfect 4/4 across the above subcategories. This year, in addition to the above key areas, we also analyzed public outreach campaigns (media, workshops, awards) and availability of green community grants to fund further outreach and awareness efforts. Cities were credited according to effectiveness of education and outreach activities.
Cities scoring a perfect 5/5 included: New York, Portland, Seattle. Following in fourth place closely behind were: Columbus, Denver, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and San Francisco.
The 43 cities that responded to the survey are included in this list. SustainLane was not able to rate cities listed as N/A as data was unavailable.
