Recently, Country Home magazine, in conjunction with Sperling’s BestPlaces, reveals that Panama City/Lynn Haven is one of the best ‘Green’ cities in the United States.
As gas prices rise, home buyers have become more interested in exploring a green lifestyle.
“The Best Green Places study, which is based on data discovered by Sperling’s BestPlaces, examines 24 data metrics in 5 major categories — including air and watershed quality, mass transit usage, power usage, farmers markets, organic producers, and number of green-certified building.”
While we may not have made the top ten of this list, we did manage to obtain position #107 out of 379 edging out other major Florida metropolitan areas such as #111 – Tallahassee, #146 – Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent and #177 – Fort Walton Beach-Crestview-Destin and other Florida cities.
Not bad at all. Where does your city rate? See the complete list here.
