I know the article says the Bronx, but it's just not true. SI is greener, when defined according to NDVI. That's a less sexy article for the Times, tho.

I'm a PhD student and part of my research involves assessing the health effects of neighborhood green spaces in NYC. I've collected and analyzed these data myself.

So is that measuring people’s yards though? I think the article is talking about public green space.

Fair point! NDVI includes yards.
