I wonder if there is a standard measurement for “lushness” of a city.

Something like the ratio of acres of concrete/steel/glass to the acres of grass/water/dirt

Maybe a better measurement is total linear contact between the two categories.

Think - homogenized mixture (yards in front of every house) vs lumpy mixture (one big park in the middle)

Is lushness an optimization of points of contact instead of ratio?

Hmm wonder if that is measurable using satellite images or something..

i asked a couple friends who might know.

where i live (residential area south of downtown austin) i can only have so much of my lot area covered by structures or concrete (any non-permeable surface, really). i wonder how that's managed in the more urban areas? they may just rely totally on the storm drainage systems 🤔

I haven’t! But curious more about methodology than cities
