A recent post comparing the lives of trees in Flint and San Francisco inspired me to do a little more tree monitoring in the Mission District today and elicited this reply from Erin:
"Flint actually has one of the most extensive urban forests, however it is most neglected. We have not had a forester employed by the city in over a decade. USDA money for Ash removal was misspent by the previous administration. I could have taken you to many streets [in Flint] that look worse than your examples."
