America's Greenest Cities

No. 1 Portland, OR
Portland literally has you covered with green space: one fourth of the city is shaded by tree canopy, and the ground itself features 288 parks—including the world’s smallest dedicated park, the 24-inch-long Mill Ends Park. Portland also ranked at the top of the survey for its mass transit and near the top for its groovy, offbeat locals, known for their DIY spirit and cycling culture.
