Top Green Cities

Posted by Jordan Crouch on January 8, 2008

Earthlab Foundation ranks the top cities in the United States by their “Green-ness”. Below is the ranking, notice two Pacific Northwest cities made the top ten list. The ranking is based on residential households not commercial real estate. The commercial industry usually follows residential in trends. We are already seeing Green development in commercial real estate (especially in the cities below) and I would expect it to become even more prominent.

Top 10 Green Cities
1. Chicago, IL
2. New York, NY
3. Boston, MA
4. Los Angeles, CA
5. Philadelphia, PA
6. Minneapolis, MN
7. San Francisco, CA
8. Seattle, WA
9. Austin, TX
10. Portland, OR
