The Effect of Household Income on Street Tree Diversity: A Close Look at Four Brooklyn Neighborhoods
we would like to find out whether tree diversity is similar across a subset of four neighborhoods in Brooklyn which differ significantly with regard to the median household income of the residents therein.

We are interested in exploring the relationship between median household income and tree diversity because tree diversity is important to neighborhood health and quality of life.
