American Forests' Tree Equity Score combines tree canopy coverage, surface temperature, income, employment, race, age, and health data to identify where trees are needed most. Scores range from 0 to 100, and areas below 60 are priority for investment.

Data only
We crunched Germantown, TN's numbers harder than your accountant in April. Still can't tell you where to get a free tree though. Wild.
