Normally, we think "bigger is better." After all, who doesn't want a bigger house or a bigger yard? But bigger is not always better and sometimes homeowners want to worry less about the care (and cost) of large pristine carpets of green turf.
In a recent survery — 2024's Cities With the Biggest and Smallest Yards — LawnStarter compared 2,000 of the biggest U.S. cities based on the average yard size of single-family homes from data by the Federal Finance Housing Agency (FHFA). The lower the score, the Lawn-liest your city is, translating to less maintenance, less watering, less fertilizer and fewer lawn care costs.
