- Many people carry the impression that big cities are dirty by their very nature, but that doesn't necessarily have to be the case.
- A new 200-city ranking reveals which large US cities are clean and which ones are filthy.
- The data used for the rankings comes from a variety of sources and should paint a fairly accurate picture of the "health" of each city.
When you hear the term "big city" your mind might draw up an image of a metropolis bustling with people and vehicles. In some cases, that image is also tainted by thoughts of pollution, litter, and other nastiness that can sometimes plague locations with large numbers of residents. Air pollution, water pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and the burning of fossil fuels all contribute to how "clean" or "dirty" a city is, but there are many other factors at play here as well.
The site LawnStarter crunched an incredible amount of data from a variety of official sources in order to rank 200 of the biggest cities in the United States. The results, while not entirely surprising, might still make you raise your eyebrow once or twice.
