Tree City USA

Tree City USA

Bronxville is proud to once again be recognized as a Tree City USA community. In 1976, the Abor Day Foundation began the Tree City USA program to provide communities with a framework to maintain and grow their tree cover and to celebrate their work and their commitment to the environment.  Today, more than 3,600 communities participate from all 50 states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico.

There are many reasons why this designation and protecting Bronxville’s trees are important. 

Trees help to:

Mitigate climate change

• Reduce flooding and provide cooling

• Remove air pollution and muffle noise

• Provide privacy for our homes and habitat for wildlife

• Contribute to our mental and physical well-being

• Increase property values
