Counties with the least AC—mostly in California, Oregon, and high-elevation Colorado—like San Francisco County (just 35% AC) are left vulnerable. Meanwhile, tiny Kenedy, Texas, stands out with 100% AC coverage. The divide stems from geography, infrastructure, and climate: warmer states use more AC, but older homes in the Northeast and Midwest rely on window units or none at all. With climate change intensifying heat, passive cooling solutions like green roofs and shaded courtyards are gaining traction as essential, energy-smart alternatives. This isn’t just about comfort—it’s about survival when the mercury climbs.
