Abstract
Analysis of county-level forest area statistics for 208 counties in New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, shows: (a) All counties have substantial forest acreage regardless of the degree of urbanization; even counties with urban centers are more than 30% forested; and (b) Forest area distribution by stand-size class shows no clear association with the degree of urbanization in the county.
