1. Kent County, Michigan
Edited on Tue Dec-09-03 05:55 PM by ih8thegop
The bad news:

"In 2001, this county ranked among the dirtiest/worst 10% of all counties in the U.S. in terms of air releases of recognized developmental toxicants."

The good news:

"In 2001, this county ranked among the cleanest/best 10% of all counties in the U.S. in terms of land releases."
