How we measured this
We plot each City neighborhood on both measures and compute the Pearson correlation across the 60 that meet the floors. Sources: City of Milwaukee street trees planted in 2024 and 2025 (DPW Forestry); City of Milwaukee Master Property File (MPROP).
What would change the answer
This shows a pattern across neighborhoods. It doesn't show that one thing causes the other, and it says nothing about any one person. A correlation near 0 means no straight-line pattern, and one or two unusual neighborhoods can move it.
